The headline is completely misleading: Since Brexit, British books usually arrive about a week late in the EU due to border checks.
This is !savedyouaclick material. (Thanks, @YungOnions.)
We dont want it thank you
Ok, but could you take him instead?
He probably won’t be able to do as much damage if he’s out the country.
Johnson’s memoir came out in the U.K. on October 10 but is expected to arrive in Brussels only later Monday. Waterstones’ only shops outside the U.K. are in Amsterdam, Brussels and several Irish towns.
The delay means that European officials will have to wait another few hours to fact-check Johnson’s claims about the Brexit negotiations and his (at times difficult) relationship with EU leaders.
So it’s delayed, not actually ‘not on sale’.
Also, can’t they just download the ebook regardless of where they are? I’m not understanding how this would provide difficulty for European officials to obtain a copy for fact checking. Maybe I’m missing something.
Exactly. You’re not missing anything. This is just an example of typical media headline bullshit.
Good riddance.
Deliberately misleading headline.
The EU physical book release is like a week later.
That said, nobody wants his book anyway, I’d wager.
