Apparently Matt Hancock is going into the jungle. What the feck does he think he's doing ?

It's akin to a terrorist running at armed police instead of putting his hands up.

He must know it's suicide.

Does he care ?

Words fail me.

Of course he doesn’t care. He is political dead meat. Needs to find a new outlet for his peerless skills

Not content with locking people up while ignoring that himself as he plows someone behind his wifes back, he now gets to collect a cheque for boring us with his presence once again. I can't say I'm suprised; that's politicians for you.

£350k for acting like a t** says he doesn’t care. How he can continue to collect his MP salary beggars belief, as he will not be available to do what he is paid for. Should be an automatic sacking imo

Agreed. You have to watch the wording. Although the Conservative Party have suspended him, he's still collecting his MP's wages (plus generous expenses), and not doing the job he's employed to do.

However, this is a huge ratings boost already for the broadcasting company.

 


I disengage, I turn the page.

According to Steve Allen on LBC, who normally has a good grip on celebrity gossip, Hancock is getting £200k from the TV company. The why do it is simple, he has a book coming out so his appearance is to promote that.

If the man had any decency he would have resigned his job before going into the jungle but then he is a politician and despite what some on this site believe most have their snouts firmly in the trough and have to be dragged away from it.

I'm glad he is suspended by the Tories but it's wrong there is nothing more than can be done. He can just wait it out until the next GE all the while stealing a living from the rest of us.

Agreed.

His party has effectively made him an independent and he is political dead man walking till he gets washed away at the next general election.

Does he truly believe he can become a TV personality with this? You never know in the age of monkey tennis; but he does not have the charm of say Michael Portillo to present well in front of camera.

Perhaps he is considering his memoires? Given the Tories have dumped him, he will have nothing to lose with a complete kiss + tell. There are a hell of a lot of buried bodies from the last 6 years of political turmoil. I suspect he knows where most of them are.

A sad indictment of the times and, frankly, pathetic.
