The news came as Johnson missed the London Assembly oversight committee’s 6pm deadline to explain his links to Arcuri. Johnson’s diary for 27 February 2013 lists eight appointments but the last two on that day are redacted because they relate to personal information about the mayor. The diary contains no mention of “technology lessons”, which Arcuri reportedly told a friend she was giving to Johnson in her flat. The diary is also littered with meetings Johnson held with London & Partners (L&P), the mayor’s promotional agency, which granted Arcuri’s business £11,500 while the prime minister was in City Hall. Everything was done with full propriety.”In addition, No 10 refused to clarify whether any of Johnson’s meetings with Arcuri were among those redacted.
