Former PM Boris Johnson spotted making surprise visit to Highlands

Eagle-eyed air travellers took to social media yesterday morning after spotting former prime minister Boris Johnson on an Easyjet flight from Luton to Inverness.

The former PM was quickly escorted away from the terminal at Inverness Airport, arriving shortly after 11am.

Tim Healey, a passenger on the flight said: "As we left in a taxi, there was a black vehicle cavalcade which pulled up and disappeared into the airport, at the back of the taxi area."

It is understood that Mr Johnson, dressed in a suit, is visiting the Highlands on business, but the nature of his visit is not known.
