The Sunday Times columnist Charlotte Edwardes has publicly accused Boris Johnson of making sexual advances and "touching her thighs" under the table during a lunch in 1999 at the offices of 'The Spectactor', at the time of which the premier was director of the conservative magazine.

Johnson has avoided personally entering the rag, but his Treasury secretary Sajid Javid has had to come out in his defense claiming that the accusations are "a complete lie."

In his column in 'The Sunday Times', Edwardes alleges that Johnson slipped his hand under the tablecloth during lunch to touch his thighs and "have so much flesh between his fingers" that made him sit upright in the chair.

According to the journalist, Johnson made the same advance in that lunch to another woman, who came to confess: "God, he has done exactly the same with me."

Before Johnson's first reaction, throwing balls out through his collaborators, Charlotte Edwardes counterattacked on Twitter: "If the prime minister doesn't remember the incident, that means I have a better memory."

The stormy private life of the premier, who divorced his second wife Marina Wheeler over a year ago and lives in Downing Street with his partner Carrie Symonds (with whom he starred in the famous quarrel over the stain of wine on the sofa), returns to being in the foreground in the case of Jennifer Arcuri , her American "friend" who benefited from scholarships of more than 125,000 euros for her companies, Innotech and Hacker House.

As revealed by 'The Sunday Times', Arcuri came to confess to several friends that he had a sexual relationship with Johnson ( whom he called "Alexander the Great" in his contacts ) in his time as mayor of London. Johnson visited her frequently in her apartment in Shoreditch, where Arcuri worked out in a pool dancing bar like the one in the strip bars.

The Arcuri scandal now faces at least two possible investigations for possible conflict of interest and inappropriate conduct of a public office, by the Greater London Authority and the Ministry of Culture and Sports.
