Beggars belief!

And smacks of desperation.
What next - Strictly or Love Island?

I hope he’ll be the first one to be voted out !

Been suspended from Tory party 😄😄😄

Yet more shambles

Not before he's done more than his share of trials crazygrin.

Beg to differ, ww. Decisive action from the Tories. Now, Matt Hancock is a shambles.

Following in the footsteps of that other political giant Kezia Dugdale 😂 Fools both

It’s nothing new. Nadine Dorries had the whip suspended too when she went in. He’s probably planning to leave parliament at the next election, so cashing in while he can.

Crikey! Is this why I never could take him seriously. True colours.

It's a pity a few more of them couldn't pack their bags and trundle off to the jungle. Although his main crime seems to be he is doing it in 'work' time.

So what about Johnson?

GrannyGravy13 Tue 01-Nov-22 11:51:52

Double standards, Mr.Johnson was out of the Country, made one lucrative speech and received over £100,000’s and holidayed in the Dominican Republic.

He has not had the whip removed.

I assume that this confirms that Mr. Johnson was working remotely , what other explanation could there be?

Mr. Hancock may have decided that his career in politics is drawing to a close and needs to expand his earning potential.

Should make for interesting viewing

Boz Tue 01-Nov-22 12:08:08

Hancock is probably involved in an expensive divorce.

Fleurpepper Tue 01-Nov-22 12:09:39

Wow, not much change then. From one Jungle to another!

MaizieD Tue 01-Nov-22 12:14:23

He's also now got a book out all about the absolute shambolic mess success he made of dealing with covid. I wonder if it will sell? grin

Glorianny Tue 01-Nov-22 12:15:47

I think it's a great idea! Perhaps we could make it the way we choose our next PM. Great deal more democratic than the present system.
Oh just the thought of the trials they could be put through!!

TwiceAsNice Tue 01-Nov-22 12:16:05

Just shows what a buffoon he is. How I dislike that man!

He's going to be nominated for numerous challenges

wendyann23 Tue 01-Nov-22 12:25:42

Oh how I will enjoy voting for him to do the trials especially the eating one!
