British health minister Matt Hancock quit on Saturday after he was caught breaking COVID-19 rules by kissing and embracing an aide in his office, enraging colleagues and the public who have been living under lockdown.

In the latest scandal to rock a government that has overseen one of the highest death tolls from the coronavirus pandemic, Hancock, 42, wrote to Prime Minister Boris Johnson to resign, saying he had let people down.

Matt Hancock is what hypocritical political leadership in this world is all about when it comes to the coronavirus.

Peter Hitchens offered up some tweets about this today and here is one.

How to ranks these hypocritical politician COVID infractions?
1. A kiss with an aide.
2. Dinner at the “French Laundry” with a lot of friends.
3. Flying to Florida to see your “sick” father (who appears healthy as can be) on a private jet “loaned” by businessmen - flight valued at $27,000.
4. Getting your hair done in a private visit to a COVID locked-down hair salon.
5. Vacationing in Cancun with your family during COVID lock-down.

I must have missed a dozen more.

I think Whitmer flying to Florida takes the cake. A kiss with an aide is WAY down at the bottom of the list.

Looks like he’s trying to revive a CoVid victim with artificial resuscitation. What a hero!

Flying to Florida for a fundraiser after locking down NC. Photo’d not wearing a mask there and mandating masks.

He is deeply sorry--that he got caught...

Classic sociopath.

LOL LOL LOL

THATS his reason? He broke Wuhan Flu rules?

His wife was so horrified at this serious breach that she left the home! “I can’t live with a man who breaks protocols like this!” she mewled.

What an effin joke.

If Hancock ever submitted to blackmail, he’s done far more in addition to screwing around on his wife.

No kissing in the (y)UK, huh? That probably makes the appropriately named “Bore-his Johnson” sad indeed, particularly as the prohibition likely isn’t limited to kisses on the face. I absolutely hate what the yUK government led by The “Johnson” has done to a once-proud, once-brave society.
