This is a photo taken of Boris Johnson since he has been Prime Minister. It was taken in April 2019 as part of a programme on Brexit. An image of Boris Johnson being interviewed on a park bench has been incorrectly dated to this week (since he became Prime Minister, and after parliament returned following summer). It has been shared thousands of times on Twitter and across Facebook. The image is actually taken from an interview Mr Johnson did with the BBC that was aired April 2019. At the time of the interview, Mr Johnson was a backbench MP. You can read our guide on how to verify and spot misleading images here. This article is part of our work fact checking potentially false pictures, videos and stories on Facebook. You can read more about this—and find out how to report Facebook content—here. For the purposes of that scheme, we’ve rated this claim as false as the image has been taken from an interview aired April 2019.
