British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, whose personal finances are under scrutiny after several scandals, has failed to pay a small debt nearly seven months after a court order, documents showed Wednesday.
An online database of civil county court judgments in England and Wales showed Johnson has yet to settle the debt of £535 ($757, 624 euros) following a ruling on October 26 last year.
The judgment, confirmed by AFP and first reported by the fortnightly satirical and news magazine Private Eye, does not reveal details about the nature of the debt or the creditor.
Johnson is named as the debtor and lists his address as 10 Downing Street — the home of prime ministers since 1735 and one of the country’s best-known residences.
The 56-year-old leader’s spokesman told reporters that his office was “looking into this issue currently”.
