I didn’t know this but DH was watching breakfast tv and they said that no one was allowed to accuse anyone of lying in parliament. It’s obvious that they don’t but I didn’t realise it wasn’t actually allowed. I think it was Caroline Lucas or Layla Moran who pointed it out.

I am watching, but struggling to stay awake. I was glued to the Cummings one, but Hancock seems to be trying to bore us all into switching off. (I know it's not entertainment, but still . . .)

Actually, the Dawn Butler questions about his conversations with individuals is getting interesting ?

He was downright rude to Dawn Butler….

Hancock said that he wasn’t aware of Palantir’s links with Cambridge Analytica.

I don’t believe him. That is a lie

Yes. Either a bare-faced lie or an admission of incompetence, as it was his business to know these things. He can't have it both ways.

I don't believe either of them - Hancock or Cummings!

Amazed he's the gall to say most of what he's said.
Nice watching him squirm. Does he really believe people have such short memories - about something that's affected us all in one way or another.
No ppe shortage? ? I remember the staff in bin liners!
The DNRs out on people - maybe he doesn't watch the news? ?
SM facing up to him well.

Anyone watching this now? He really does talk the talk doesn’t he. Has just stated that no health worker has died due to lack of PPE. At least Sarah Owen is now giving him a good grilling.
