Boris Johnson ‘can’t remember passcode’ to phone with Covid WhatsApp messages
The Independent says Boris Johnson’s WhatsApp messages from his old phone have not yet been handed to the Covid inquiry because he has forgotten the passcode, it is claimed.
The former prime minister is thought to be unable to recall the code to unlock the device thought to contain crucial Covid-era communications with ministers, which he stopped using in May 2021.
Mr Johnson cannot remember the passcode “with 100 per cent confidence”, according to The Times. The ex-Tory leader’s spokesman did not deny he could not recall the code.
There are concerns that any attempt to unlock the iPhone could lead to it being disabled, erasing its data including key WhatsApp messages from the pandemic, it reported.
