Matt Hancocks Affair

[Dodge]

I have no problem with security cameras as long as they are used for the right reasons. When security cameras are being used to report on a person’s indiscretion which has nothing to do with security then in my opinion it is an abuse of power and should be investigated.

I could not careless about the rights and safety of the whistleblower. They had no right to use security camera footage to expose Hancock’s indiscretion, that is not what security cameras are there for.

What is clear is that the people who have access to security camera footage within the government building cannot be trusted and whoever leaked the footage should be identified and sacked, because such a person should not be put in a position of trust.

Am pretty certain that most people are aware of surveillance in their places of work as a matter of course. I was (in schools) without having to be told.

you think so?

Hi

Alan left 10 years ago, things have changed since then.

Precisely. A lot has changed in ten years.

Don’t know if its been mentioned already, but the aide has quit her post too…:shock:

Well that’s fair. She broke the rules too.

[OldGreyFox]

What if Matt and Gina had been in the same ‘Bubble’? Which was likely since they worked together…
Apart from adultery there would have been no breaking of rules…

[PixieKnuckles]

The tabloids are now saying its a love match and the pair are setting up home together :roll:

Who cares, it still doesn’t make it ok

@OldGreyFox

True Dex…

Mrs Fox and me know two couples who divorced in the eighties, only to rekindle their love for each other in the 2000’s and they both remarried…Love never dies, it just needs CPR occasionally…

Tell the Vicar that.

More Tea, Mr Bike.

Then why did the lovebirds wait until they were caught?

Romeo & Juliet, they ain’t!

Oh heavens knows! He probably planted the camera himself to move things along quickly.

None of us know what goes on in marriages behind closed doors.

An article, in the DT suggests that men, who are working really hard in intense, high profile jobs, have a big change of personality from what they had, years before, when they got wed.

Thus, it claims, husbands and wives no longer know each other, nor do they respond as they once did.

It implies that to be one of the reasons that men have it away, with similar hard working women, because that’s their new environmental norm!

Clearly, that must be why some change their partners, on a regular basis, to stay level?

:-p

I suspects this is the first time a minister has resigned to spend more time with somebody else’s family’

But I feel for his true family.

Would he have left them if he hadn’t been exposed?

I see someone has left a pile of the DM’s own products outside its offices.

It is sad for his family, but maybe the question we should ask is " Would his wife & children want the man to stay when he was obviously deceiving them?".

I feel sorry for his wife…she had the other woman as a facebook friends and believed her marriage was happy and stable. I certainly wouldn’t such a conniving rat in my house.:shock:

[Muddy]

He probably didn’t intend to do it . Close proximity the crisis and everything .

I really don’t give a toss about Hancocks affair, marriages break down for all sorts of reasons and it happens all the time. As far as I’m concerned, that part is a private matter for him and those directly affected.

Here is what really does p1ss me off.

I was unable to see my mum since Christmas due to Hancocks lockdown and regional travel restrictions. Month after month we rescheduled until finally, when both me and my mum had our double jabs in May, I threw caution to the wind and went to see her anyway, driving 240 miles up to Stockton. My sister was staying with her as she was moving house and her new flat wasn’t quite ready and as my mums house only has 2 bedrooms I said I would stay the night round the corner in a Travel Lodge as it would also be late when I arrived.

On the Friday morning as I was getting ready to leave to see her, my phone rang. It was my sister telling me my mum had died during the night and as I got to the house I was greeted by paramedics, police and a distraught sister. I never did get to see her again and I have to live with myself thinking if only I had just popped round on the Thursday night I would at least have seen her, just briefly.

This is why people are so angry with Hancock, people like me in their thousands, millions even when you look at the wider impact, who have been left devastated by the impact of the lockdown rules while selfish, self centred bastard Hancock, the guy in charge of UK Health, sticks two fingers at the people and decides his rules don’t apply to him and can’t get in the way of him getting his leg over with someone else wife.

I don’t believe a word of his virtuous BS resignation either, I don’t think anyone in my position feels comforted by his apology. He should resign as an MP and give the job to someone who serves his constituents rather than himself. Someone who hasn’t the courage to end a relationship before starting another and someone who makes his children his priority.

And meanwhile at the G7, leaders slap each others backs without wearing facemasks, walking with arms round each other to their tax payer funded barbecue, flying in by private jets to visit our country (which, incidentally, families of UK citizens living abroad can’t do without spending £2,500 isolating in a hotel for 10 days), and lecturing us on going 0% carbon and green issues.

This won’t be forgotten at the ballot box, I can tell you. Certainly not by me anyway.
