Don’t feel too sorry for Matt Hancock. He probably knows how the others feel. Maybe he’s just playing along with it? I reckon he can see what’s going on. I don’t think he’s that naive.
He was given allegedly 400k. That’s for what, 3 weeks in Australia? He’s also allegedly been offered other lots more money for other stuff when he leaves.
Hancock knows he’ll make more money now than he did in politics. If he knows his political career is coming to an end he’ll grab any opportunity he can to make money.
I guarantee he’ll get a much higher paid job than he did as an MP.
Look at Boris, he’s allegedly making tons of money doing speeches and other work.
Tony Blair made millions after being PM.
