MANCHESTER: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Tuesday there had been no impropriety in his relationship with a US businesswoman which is now subject to a possible misconduct investigation.
The government of London said on Friday it had referred Johnson to Britain’s police watchdog for potential investigation over allegations of misconduct involving tech entrepreneur Jennifer Arcuri while he was mayor of London. “I can tell you there was no impropriety as far as I’m concerned,” Johnson said when asked about the allegations on LBC Radio.
Asked why the allegations had surfaced, he linked them to those who wanted to stop him from delivering Brexit. “I think there’s a very good reason, and that is that I’ve been tasked, one way or the other, to get Brexit done by Oct 31, and there are quite a lot of well meaning, and highly intelligent people, who basically think that would be something they don’t want to see,” he said.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
