Matt Hancock affair (3)

[TheoMeo]

Surely you would have cameras in a Government building and surely pointing it at doorways between different areas or departments isn't a bad idea.
It looks like a screenshot of a cctv security camera monitor.

Dodgy contracts with mates set up via a private google email account.

Employed his mistress.

Woke up his 8yr old to tell them he was leaving.

Disgusting man.

I’m in a school.

I imagine many school staff would be high-fiving one another and ordering in pizza if Gavin Williamson were suddenly obliged to resign. But I expect his aides are put off snogging him by the spider and the whip.

Apparently she’s staying with her father in Steeple Morden - conveniently close to Hancock’s constituency home.

The vaccine programme has been amazing. Loads of centres, well staffed

So? Quite rightly.

And staffed by NHS workers and a huge army of volunteers. I am sick to death of vaccine vaccine vaccine being the answer to everything. We've dropped behind Italy, Germany and France now anyway (info taken from BBC website)

Boris does this in PMQ in the most disgusting way. He did it when questioned by Starmer at the rates of convictions for rape. It was abhorrent and showed just what this Government thinks of important matters. When against the ropes he answers 'vaccination record'.

I think this is the distraction that pp's were talking about, that hidden cameras were planted in minister's offices.

Hardly a hidden camera - from the pictures I’ve seen it looked like a massive great ball on the ceiling! I’m not sure how anyone could miss it!

@Roussette do you have a link for that? I just did a quick google and it looks like 29% of Italians have been fully vaccinated. Here it’s over 60%!

The camera was hidden in a smoke alarm in that room

@Divineswirls

To paraphrase - opinions on that may differ.

Yep here it is
Look under 'how well are EU countries doing'

@Roussette oh, slightly misleading post then. Our daily dose numbers may be lower than those countries currently, but we’ve vaccinated far more many people than they have!

• far more people!

@Blossomtoes

Your callousness rivals that of Brendan Lewis *@Thewinterofdiscontent*. It’s really distasteful and unpleasant.

Grow up. You can feel dismay for individuals whilst seeing the bigger picture.

And staffed by NHS workers and a huge army of volunteers.

And a very good example of NHS staff and ordinary people, far from breaking the rules, pulling together instead. Pity our elected representatives in Government don't feel the same sense of obligation. Not that this should surprise you with Johnson.

What 'bigger picture' do Johnson's Government see? Do tell us. The only thing they seem able to see is how to make money for themselves.

Interesting the thought that the Queen's remark suggests that it may not all have been of a sudden and either Mr Johnson or Mr Hancock knew something was going to be reported.

@newnortherner111 well yes, the paper in question would presumably have contacted Hancock before publication?

6 kids visiting for half of the week should soon cause enough grief to split the lovers up.
They have three each. i hardly think any budding love affair will survive that.

I missed the post that said this - but having watched the short video of Queenie with Boris in the week talking about the Health Secretary "poor man" - I wonder too whether she knew that this was coming.

It's funny - there's been a couple of clips of her recently and she suddenly seems much less discreet and silent than she used to be. Like an archetypal old woman who says whatever she pleases. It's made me smile.

So I've found on Twitter the rumours that Gove & Vine are allegedly separated due to his infidelity. So hence the enormous faith posters here put in her article as some kind of ... swipe?

tbh, now that I know that context, her article is even more bland than I thought. If that's the best she has, I'm rather disappointed.

Wasn't the Queen just winding Boris up because of what he'd said about MH. I very much doubt The Sun would've called her to give her a heads up before the exposé. Although the timing was pretty perfect and I wonder whether that might've triggered them running it that particular day.

He clearly knows something that the gen public doesn't know regarding the severity of covid if he's happy to bang on regardless and share saliva etc since most likely 2019 if you read the mail and all the links to past events at that time

What I'm trying to say is clearly he doesn't think of the risk of covid in the same way as many of us.

So does he have reason to believe covid isn't even a risk?

That is troubling me more than this nauseating affair story.

And huge sympathies to his wife and to Gina's husband. It's just awful.

That’s never going to happen and if it does, she at least can afford staff.

I’ve been wondering the same thing. I suppose he’d already had Covid-19 and was possibly already vaccinated.

It’s odd. I don’t give two hoots about his affair. All that is boring- but what’s underneath all this is not.

No other country has skipped through it without a hitch

No, they haven’t but a fair few done better. Germany have had 90,000 deaths, U.K. 130,000. Adjusting for population equivalent to U.K, Germany would be 170,000 deaths if same as U.K.

I took that to mean “poor man” as in, he’s got a difficult job - not that she knew he was about to be exposed as a cheating love rat!
