Looks like we might need a new thread.

@MercyBooth

What video?
Ignorance really is bliss, trust me you do not need to see the video.
ScribblyBaller · 25/06/2021 22:16

Being the weak curtain-twitcher I am I succumbed and watched the video

The awkwardness!

Chickpeasorchips · 25/06/2021 22:17

The video feels like too much information. It's giving me Prince Charles/Tampax flashbacks

@Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting

I loved the comment I read on MN a while ago. 'Matt Hancock looks like the type of man who cries after sex, in a sort of grateful way.' Grin
Maybe the poster spoke from experience? Grin

Ive just seen it on Twitter.

MercyBooth · 25/06/2021 22:22

bleugh

the80sweregreat · 25/06/2021 22:23

I watched the video. His look around the door, the way he held her hand. It's clearly been going on for a long time I think. They seemed very comfortable with each other.,
His poor wife and her poor husband. Poor kids too :(
Just so sad.

PokerFaceGrace · 25/06/2021 22:24

I read that they were videoed in a corridor but from the video it looks like an office. I thought it was odd that it was reported he leaned on the door to stop it being opened because surely the door would have opened outwards from a corridor Confused. There’s a TV screen on the wall.

So did someone put a hidden camera in his office? Staff knew what was going on apparently Hmm. Wonder if someone decided to catch them at it? He must have been furious when he discovered he’d been found out Grin.

His poorer wife obviously but also he has two teens. I hope to god they don’t suffer from this at school Sad. Or her DC. What a pair of cunts! I really hope their spouses kick them to the kerb. There’s no going back from such public humiliation and there no way it was just a kiss and a grope. They’ve gone a lot further than that.

Sensateria · 25/06/2021 22:26

Eeew. This has been going on for quite a while if you watch the video. This is two people very comfortable with what they’re doing as in they’ve done this (in work) before.

The video is on The Sun website for all those asking - or Google Matt Handcock video.

PokerFaceGrace · 25/06/2021 22:26

Sorry door would have inwards from a corridor.

TheoMeo · 25/06/2021 22:29

How is that video so we'll targetted? Did they know it was there? Are we all being set up in some Tory soap opera farce?

That’s what you are focussing on right now?
the80sweregreat · 25/06/2021 22:33

I would bet they have been having an affair for ages. He is clearly smitten in that video.
It must be so humiliating for their spouses seeing all this.
I really hope Martha Hancock gets everything she is entitled to and screws him to the wall.
Ditto her husband too.
Make them squirm.
If the sun has this video, then there must be more ? How many more hours footage have they got ? ..why didn't he know about the camera in his own office ?
So many questions.

Tigertigertigertiger · 25/06/2021 22:37

For fuck sake leave him alone.

TheoMeo · 25/06/2021 22:41

He needs to resign - for the sake of the Tory party if nothing else. He and Boris are tarnished with sleaze over jobs for chums - they need to go.

I want to know... why should we?

There are families out there who have abided by every rule going and it's caused them horrendous upset, stress and hurt. Not being able to be with loved ones, unable to have funerals with many there... yet little Matty Hancock carries on with his affair, ignores the rules he sets for us plebs... no sorry, not leaving him alone.

LindainLockdown · 25/06/2021 22:42

@Tigertigertigertiger

For fuck sake leave him alone.
But it is not just about him.

It's a much bigger picture of government lies, deceit, and thinking they don't have to follow the rules like the rest of us.

This matter is not closed, he needs to go.

Anniegetyourgun · 25/06/2021 22:42

@Tigertigertigertiger

Eh? He won't be reading this thread.
LadyWithLapdog · 25/06/2021 22:44

Leave him alone? How convenient.

When is it ok to be outraged? Are we at the stage where we just shrug as it’s only Tory sleaze, to be expected?

How do you feel about the Health Secretary helping to shape the rules on social distancing, now apologising for breaching those very rules

MercyBooth · 25/06/2021 22:46

I bet there is a correlation between those who want Hancock to get away with this and those who lose their shit online (and sometimes offline) when they see someone without a face mask on in Tesco.

frg124 · 25/06/2021 22:46

While cheating on his wife is very shitty behaviour, I don't see it as a sackable offence. Breaking Covid restrictions as Health Secretary is another matter. I think he will resign by Monday spouting some glib sound bites about not wanting to undermine public confidence in the government.

Rhayader · 25/06/2021 22:47

I work with him and have been in his office countless times. AMA

bollihigh · 25/06/2021 22:48

Having seen that video I can't believe there isn't a pornhub follow-up. Please don't watch it you can't unwatch it after, In his defence Johnson infidelity would I surmise look a whole lot worse.

Have a good-looking rich husband who owns a string of clothes shops why the fuck would you stray for that...

fabulous01 · 25/06/2021 22:49

I watched the video...

Mega gross..... madness
