Questions over Boris Johnson’s relationship with ex-model ‘awarded £126,000 of public funds’
Prime minister urged to respond to ‘grave and serious’ allegations that he failed to declare potential conflicts of interest over close friendship with American model-turned-entrepreneur Jennifer Arcuri​

Boris Johnson is being urged to respond to “grave and serious” allegations that he failed to declare potential conflicts of interest over a close friendship with an American model turned technology entrepreneur.

Jennifer Arcuri, 34, was given a total of £126,000 in public money and privileged access to three official overseas trade missions led by the now prime minister, according to an investigation by The Sunday Times.

Sources told the newspaper that Mr Johnson, now 55, was a regular visitor to the entrepreneur’s top-floor flat in Shoreditch, east London.

Ms Arcuri’s business reportedly received £10,000 in sponsorship cash from an organisation Mr Johnson was responsible for as London mayor in 2013, and he is said to have attended numerous events she arranged that promoted her company.

The former model was also given special treatment when it came to joining overseas trade missions led by the then mayor, despite her tech firm not meeting the eligibility criteria for any of the three trade missions she attended in the space of a year, the newspaper said.

:btu:   They are really nasty.  There are still a bunch including MPs on trial for being members of a criminal organisation.
