The BBC presenter went into more detail over the now cancelled, highly publicised interview with Boris Johnson, who she called 'one of the most consequential politicians of our time'.

Laura Kuenssberg has explained more about why a planned BBC interview with Boris Johnson could not go ahead - and revealed the 'brighter side' after she said she accidentally sent the former prime minister her briefing notes.

'Nor could we have changed our question subjects. If I hadn't asked about Brexit, COVID, partygate, his resignation or his relationship with the truth, we simply wouldn't have been doing our job. 'So, sadly and frustratingly, we just couldn't go ahead.' The interview by the BBC was set to be the first of a media round for the former prime minister to publicise his new book, Unleashed, which is released on 10 October.
