To miss Matt Hancock?

Not that I think he was any good at his job, he was absolutely fucking useless. But I found him so unintentionally funny, he was the gift that kept on giving. A gift to those post who make memes as well. Who can we take the piss out of and laugh at now? Politics and the news has suddenly got very boring with his absence.

@EnglishGirlApproximately

Oh god he definitely does the 10m sprint trying trainers on Grin Bet he bounces on beds in shops too
Definitely. Tries to make his kids laugh by sitting on the loo in bathroom showrooms too.
PaulaPetunia · 22/07/2021 11:25

Yes, the handbag space creating manoeuvre. Useful with this type.

Dita73 · 22/07/2021 11:40

Yeah I miss him,like a dose of the clap

@DismantledKing

He was shit, but I think that Javid is even worse.
Hancock was shit, Javid is a shit.

@GlutenFreeGingerCake

Hancock was useless and did some big cock ups, but the new health minister is really the minister for getting the economy going at all costs and is shady af.
Shady, and a bit scarey imo.

He has a bit of that "dead behind the eyes" thing going on.

@DontLookEthel

I miss him because he was weird and different.

Very funny without meaning to be. Like when watching William Shakespeare, the first man to have a covid jab. He couldn't stop himself from laughing at the name, realised too late it was inappropriate so tried to turn it into pretend crying instead.

And the time he signed off from an interview by saying "Thank you, it's good for you to have me on."

The started expression on his face as he tried to work out what he'd just said was priceless Grin.

And don’t forget falling down onto the House of Commons seats like Woody from Toy Story 😂

I agree, I miss the unintentional comedy moments.

Most memorable, his "You're so tempting..." comment to a journalist at a briefing around Xmas.

Pretending to turn into Superman?

I agree with this very much:
Hancock was shit, Javid is a shit.

VestaTilley · 22/07/2021 22:07

You are most definitely being unreasonable Grin

[quote Flavabobble]This remains my favourite video of Matt Hancock - the way she jams her handbag between them is priceless.

Urrrrgh its like Kevin and Perry Go Large the Sequel.

@sashagabadon

I liked him too. I miss him and think he has been treated poorly. Although maybe it’s for the best as we’re moving forward quicker than I think we would have done if he was still on the scene
You don’t think maybe he treated his wife and children poorly? And care home residents for that matter?
NeonJellyBaby · 23/07/2021 07:52

Oh I agree he’s treated his wife and kids appallingly, but he’s almost certainly likely to end up alone so that’s a kind of karma I suppose. Still find him hysterical though.

He was incompetent and his has caused many deaths through sheer uselessness. The new one is shady, focused on the economy and not health, and will cause many deaths deliberately. While MH was marginally better as he was at least occasionally at leasts trying, I do not find anything funny or endearing about either, and no amount of memes is going to change that.

Very true

My husband died without me with him because of rules made by the government - the last time I was allowed to see him was six weeks before he died. Maybe factor those facts into your amusement - he helped make rules for people when he apparently had none.

No I don’t miss him but I sympathise with his wife and children.

@NeonJellyBaby so she is, well spotted! Funky moves, Matt.

LouLou198 · 24/07/2021 21:18

The only thing I miss is that ghastly red office he had at home and trying to work out where the door was.

NeonJellyBaby · 25/07/2021 10:02

@Miniestelle I should have guessed his dancing would resemble a drunk dad at a wedding reception 😂
