Laura Kuenssberg’s cancelled interview with former Prime Minister Boris Johnson continues to gain lots of attention.

 What would have been a high-profile interview was canned after she accidentally sent him her briefing notes.

 The political journalist had been due to speak to him about his memoirs – called Unleashed - but posted on X that the “frustrating” gaffe “obviously means it’s not right for the interview to go ahead.”

 And the error reminds us of a question we are often asked during our media training sessions.
