Matt Hancock….

So one gone- but he was not the worst by any means. Who will replace him?

Aka Herd impunity. Will make no difference to the way they fraudulently run things, and this pandemic in particular.

Hunt? I wonder if he will get the job.

I wonder why now or was there more to come out?

Apparently tomorrow's Sunday papers might spill some beans.

nothing on ITV news about resignation !

just announced now

So Sajid Javid is new Health Secretary. Interesting. Boris showed his weakness by not sacking Matt. Caesar's wife and all that.

its a dirty business. Perhaps Boris read it here first. I mean, what with the conspiracy theories that are doing so much harm and have already done so much harm, the last thing anyone needed was somebody (who should have known better) acting like there was nothing to be worried about.

(Although for MH and anyone else having an affair, they would have been all over their "extra" the whole time and put their own family at risk too!) So. Much. Betrayal!

So the journalist who broke the story is Carrie Symonds ex boyfriend (who she is still friends with) and Javid is her ex boss. Just who’s pulling the strings here? Who exactly is running the country?

Ahhhh the plot thickens..... (!!!)

The Sun is reporting he woke his eight year old up the night his affair was revealed to tell him he was leaving his mum…!

Wowzers

Despicable man

This government is like an episode of Versailles. Or Game of Thrones….

Horrible man. Feel so sorry for his wife and children.

What a shit!!!

Well, I think Gransnet can run the country better.

What with Bozza getting married to seem all respectable before the leaders at the G7, its got to be a big embarassment what MH has done. Whatever will the Bidens be thinking?! And all the rest of the world!

I feel sorry for his parents. Mrs H if youre on Gransnet, big hugs and really sorry you're going through this

Did anyone else think that his face looked completely expressionless when he was making his resignation speech? He looked like he was drugged up to the eyeballs. I feel dreadfully sorry that 2 families have been left reeling, and their lives in tatters, because of Hancock and squeeze.

So sorry for his wife, kids and parents! What a selfish , thoughtless idiot. No idea who the woman was but I also feel sorry for her relations.

I hope his wife takes him to the cleaners…

Papers are reporting that he could be given a possible payout of £16,876.

I would have been happier to see Jeremy Hunt reinstated at Health. He may have been unpopular with the NHS but his comments throughout the pandemic and in particular leading the Commons enquiry into the supply (or lack) of PPI showed that he has a “handle” on Health matters, plus a keen brain and does not waffle.
But as he is not one of BoJo’s Brexit boys, his “turn” is not alas yet to come.
How many other highly competent MPs are there on the back benches I wonder?

It must be horrendous for Martha to have the breakup all over the papers and TV from the moment she knew about it. She is brave to go out and cope with journalists etc.

Yes maw I agree about Hunt.

Apparently Javid is friends with Carrie, and she has been keen to get him back into the cabinet.

The NHS will not be served well by Javid.

I’m not disagreeing but know nothing about Javid, why do you say he will not be good for the NHS ?

I just watched Hancock resignation video. Can’t believe that he chose to mention the vaccination programme twice when this was supposed to be about his misconduct,
