Boris Johnson's Memoir Unleashed Released Amid Controversy

Boris Johnson's memoir, 'Unleashed', set for release on Thursday, has garnered significant attention, revealing controversial insights and generating mixed reviews. Johnson unapologetically revisits the 'partygate' scandal, claiming he made 'pathetic apologies' without full knowledge of events, and asserts he would have won the 2022 election if he remained in office. The memoir, which received a £510,000 advance, has been criticized by former cabinet members and reviewers for its self-serving narrative and lack of introspection. Critics describe the writing as tedious and lacking depth, while some praise it as an opportunity for Johnson to express his views on UK politics. Despite the backlash, 'Unleashed' is currently topping Amazon UK's best-seller list, indicating strong public interest. The book's release comes amidst a backdrop of heightened scrutiny and anticipation regarding Johnson's political legacy.
