Boris Johnson’s North American tour continues. After a stop-off in Canada where he pooh-poohed Rishi Sunak’s anti-smoking plans, he moved on to Washington yesterday. At a Georgetown Q&A he told a paying audience that a return to frontline politics from his “blameless, rustic obscurity” is “unlikely”. When a Politico reporter asked Johnson, pictured, if he had been targeted in the Westminster honey-trap scandal, he replied: “Not yet! Rather humiliating, nobody has bothered.”
