    So it turns out he rejected advice to test everyone going into care homes because it might have affected his ability to hit his own testing target numbers.

    Hopefully this torpedoes his pathetic attempts at public rehabilitation, the ****.

    Literally everyone with any common sense, regardless of their lockdown views said that what was required was to throw a protective ring around the vulnerable. They literally did the opposite, moving heaven and Earth to protect the least vulnerable and exposing the ones most likely to have a bad outcome.

    I'm not going to post anything else, I promise, as the whole thing still makes me too angry.

    Pity this news didn't come out before he went into the jungle, his reception might have been somewhat different. Actually, ITV would probably not have had him on.

    Course they would have had him on - and its not as if this news is a shock to anyone with more than one brain cell
    Not even sure it would have made much difference to those members of the public that seemed to warm to him whats one more piece of evidence to add to the massive pile they were already ignoring

    He has denied this, but can anyone believe a serial liar and love cheat?

    15 residents died in our local care home in two weeks because of this- shameful

    Stated this several times, if there is a full independent inquiry, Hancock should face corporate manslaughter charges.
    Not holding my breath though, the country's corrupt as hell, the weasel will probably end up with a knighthood.

    I wouldn't trust Hancock, or anybody else that has been in Government for the last 13 years, but I would also be wary of these new reports from the Torygraph.

    Written by Isabelle Oakeshott, who makes a living out of denying things (covid, vaccines, climate change the three main ones). She also happens to be the partner of Richard Tice of the Brexit party.

    There will be an agenda to reporting this now. We all know how terrible Hancock is, I suspect the big story would be in the stuff not being reported, because it doesn't fit in with the right wing agenda.

    Silly boy thinking she could be trusted. She might struggle for work offers now because she will come across as a grass after getting a six figure sum for writing his book.

    Yep, that's the thing to take from this. That she might come across as a grass. Not that Hancock is a lovely person

    We know what Hancock is like. I doubt what she's said will have made people who like him start to hate him all of a sudden. All she's done is career suicide because if she can throw under the bus someone she made a lot of money from, people won't want to hire her.

    She gets a six figure salary on Talk TV and probably the same again from The Sun. She will have pissed off her bosses for releasing the information exclusively to a rival media organisation.

    And judging by many of the links you post on here, you help to fund her wages...

    I can't stand her, but how exactly is she "as bad as him"? As far as I can remember she hasn't set policy which killed thousands of vulnerable elderly just to meet her own arbitrary target figures.

    Just because you've seen him eat a camel's knob doesn't mean he's your mate.

    She married to someone who is probably one of the 2-3 most recognisable (currently) unelected politicians in the country who has a right-wing agenda. Theirs at the moment is to force the Tories further right so that his income from corporate rental properties isn't hit.

    *Reform* Party. They rebranded - probably to try to avoid the stench of Brexit sticking to them.
