  1. Ha, is anyone even remotely surprised? The Conservative party most likely wouldn’t let him stand anyway after *I’m a Celebrity*, and he’d stand no chance as an independent.

  2. What a shame, Hancock was incredibly effective at ensuring the deaths of many during covid. I wonder who the government will put in charge of that now /s

  3. This is such that you cant fire me I quit move… He knows the tories will get a beating and he just prevents the inevitable.

  4. Nah, I refuse to believe Matt Hancock would make a decision as sensible as not to run for election.

  5. I bet he’ll try and to host some shitty ITV thing, or get on style other “celeb” shite to try and build his image. He fucking thinks he’s a well loved celebrity now.

  6. I imagine he’s, utterly coincidentally, been offered consultancy and board membership for some PPE manufacturing and medical companies.

  7. Blood on his hands and blames it on health care workers rather than how shit a manager and politician he is. Millions in his and his friends bank accounts to help wipe his tears though. Piece of shit.

  8. Not remotely surprised. He’s already signed up for another celeb reality show, his mind is on other things now. Good riddance to him. Hopefully none of the tories retain their seats at the next GE

  9. That £400k he made for appearing on I’m A Celeb, along with his (presumably) general Tory money. He’ll be alright for a while.

  10. Can they stand down now? I don;t understand how they are allowed to say they are not going to stand and just stay in the job until the election? what motivation do they have once they know they are done? i don’t get it.

  11. Motherfucker should have stood down already after absconding from his duties as an MP to twat about on ITV and receive £300k for the insult to the country.

  12. Good. I was born and used to live in West Suffolk and he has done fuck all for the area, even before he was health secretary.
    Unfortunately it’s a die hard conservative constituency so without Hancock fumbling the election it will probably remain a safe seat for them.

  13. His going for the celeb lifestyle, invited on all the different TV shows, basically brainwashing people more into thinking his the nice guy…then after a few years of turning people around, he decides to run for leader of the Tory party

  14. Fuck the country, got some huge payouts for his mates, got on reality TV, now time to get out and do the after dinner circuit.

  15. His clearly got a knack for live television, brilliant showing in the jungle, hoping he can land himself a presenter job somewhere in the bbc, we have all done wrong things before but his clearly sorry and deserves a second chance

  16. Don’t celebrate too quick, this parasite is going full throttle for a career in the media. Expect him to pop up all over the place soon before settling as an occasional talking head on regional radio.

  17. I’m an MP get me out of here! My story of death, infidelity and corruption by Matt Hancock
    In Waterstones and wh Smith now
