Boris Johnson cuts short Australian book tour to return to UK citing ‘unforeseen circumstances’
Former UK prime minister Boris Johnson has cancelled a Melbourne event on his Australian book tour due to unforeseen circumstances, his publicist said.
The cancellation means he will return to the UK earlier than scheduled.
The Melbourne event, part of the promotion for his memoir Unleashed, was set to follow a Sydney programme on Friday.
“Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mr Johnson has to travel back to the UK a day earlier than planned, therefore, regrettably, the Melbourne event has had to be cancelled,” Australian publicist Max Markson said in a statement.
“We wish to apologise for any inconvenience caused, and wish to articulate that all Melbourne tickets are transferable to Sydney, or fully refundable.”
