Members of the public reported being stopped by police to enable the cavalcade of vehicles to progress along Leeds Road with the unproven assumption it is the Tory leader on the campaign trail in Yorkshire during the run-up to the General Election in two weeks' time.

But a source has now confirmed to the Harrogate Advertiser that Mr Johnson is NOT in Harrogate and has not been on a political visit to the town.
