While prepping to interview Boris Johnson tomorrow, by mistake I sent our briefing notes to him in a message meant for my team. That obviously means it's not right for the interview to go ahead. It's very frustrating, and there's no point pretending it's anything other than embarrassing and disappointing, as there are plenty of important questions to be asked.
A BBC spokesperson was reported as saying the inadvertent move made Thursday's interview untenable and that both the BBC and Johnson's team had agreed to cancel the interview.
