JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS, Matt Hancock the current MP for West Suffolk and former Health Secretary who presided over one of the worst death tolls in the world during Covid-19 was munching on a cow's arsehole in the name of light entertainment. With a public inquiry into the government's handling of the pandemic underway, Hancock entered the Australian "jungle" to compete on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! 2022.
It was a decision that Lobby Akinnola, a spokesperson for the Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice campaign, described as "sickening". "If he had any respect for the families like mine, he would be sharing his private emails with the Covid Inquiry, not eating bugs on TV," Akinnola said.
Speaking to the Mirror, one Labour source added that it would be a change for Hancock to be "eating b******s rather than talking it". For its part, the show saw a huge boost in ratings, with 9.1 million viewers tuning in to watch the disgraced politician gag on animal genitals during his Bushtucker Trial. In early December, Hancock announced that he will not stand as an MP at the next election.
