Kuensberg - leaked her prep notes to Johnson (she says)

ThePrisoner said:
Not sure if this is her twitter account but it says she has 'accidentally' emailed the briefing noes for her interview with Johnson to him.

I don't believe it for a second. More like someone has found out the whole thing is a scam and she is panicking.

Did she really round that Tweet off with “Honesty is the best policy.”!?

Layers of irony, there. 🤣🥸

It’d be very interesting to see her “briefing notes” and the original email.

Honesty is the best policy after all Laura.

Yes the email text would be telling. If the BBC are concerned about confidentiality they can simply redact the names of the recipients (excluding Johnson of course). But let's see the wording of the email.

Hiya Bozza Babes,

Thanks for dinner the other day, especially desert…😚
Anyway, as discussed, Gibbo and the lads have agreed that I can give a heads up re the difficult questions I’ll be asking at your book promo. They say we have to at least appear to be making you work for the huge free publicity.
So -
- Top 3 cheeses?
- Aren’t labour rubbish at prime-ministering and stuff?
- Best movie baddy?
- everybody now acknowledges that you were treated really badly and unfairly by the dumb ass public and that you were the best PM ever and would have smashed stinky Starmer at the GE. No question, it’s just a statement that I’ll slip in somewhere.
- Blondes or brunettes?
- Favourite colour?
- how much is a pint of milk? I thought If you say you normally buy a 4 Pinter of semi skimmed from the Asdas, it’ll make you seem more normal hun.
It’s £1.45 by the way.
- and finally, should they bring the death penalty back for those Labour MPs what got Taylor Swift tickets and dresses and glasses n that?

Okay, see you on Tuesday. Thought maybe we could go down the club afterwards with Jacob and Govey. Not Mad Nad Doris though…. That skank needs to back the **** off else I’ll drop the bitch!

Not sure why but the Guardian seems to be trying to protecting her. Its headline says “BBC cancels Boris Johnson interview after reporter mistakenly sends him briefing notes,” instead of naming her outright. You have to click the link to find out who it was. Which is weird because you’d think they’d be all over the BBC’s most prominent political presenter being implicated in something like this. At least the other news outlets are leading with her name.

That she posted it online at half 10 at night smacks of someone trying to bury bad news as well. And as said above, seeing the email would be really useful in the interests of honesty and transparency. I hope the BBC releases it but I really doubt it will. It will be brushed under the carpet, just like the postal votes stuff a few years back.

The Guardian has changed its headline to include her name now, calling it a ‘gaffe’. I think we all suspect she was caught out and that the only way this can be truly put to bed is if we see the full message which was sent to Johnson.
