Matthew John David Hancock is a UK politician who was made UK/Secretary of State for Health and Social Care in July 2018. A relatively young and obscure politician, he came to the limelight during the UK handling of the declared Covid-19 Pandemic, where he fronted several of the government's most draconian lockdown policies.

In April 2021 it emerged that he had a stake in Topwood Ltd, an NHS contractor in which his sister, Emily Gilruth, was involved since its foundation in 2002.[1]

Resignation

On 26 June 2021, Matt Hancock resigned as Health Secretary following publication in The Sun of pictures of Hancock in a clinch with his political adviser Gina Coladangelo that were recorded by CCTV in his office. In his letter of resignation, Hancock said:

"I want to reiterate my apology for breaking the guidance, and apologise to my family and loved ones for putting them through this."[2]

Ann Johns on Twitter reacted:

"Hancock should have resigned over the Serco contract, the Care Home deaths, the PPE disaster, the treatment of NHS workers and carers & especially 160K deaths caused by incompetence. Job gone, marriage over & probably an investigation to face & bring justice to grieving families."[3]

Early life

Hancock was born on 2 October 1978 in Chester, Cheshire, to Michael Hancock and Shirley Hills (now Carter).[4]

Hancock attended Farndon County Primary School, in Farndon, Cheshire, and the independent King's School, Chester. He took A-levels in maths, physics, computing and economics.[5] He later studied computing at the further education college, West Cheshire College.[6][7] He studied at Exeter College, Oxford, and graduated with a first in philosophy, politics and economics, and earned a MPhil degree in Economics at Christ's College, Cambridge a few years later.[8] Hancock became a member of the Conservative Party in 1999.[9]

Political Career

Hancock simulated crying for the new Covid vaccine (Bitchute [1])

A relatively obscure politician, he came to the forefront during the UK handling of the declared Covid-19 Pandemic, where he fronted several of the most draconian lockdown policies.

Before that, he gushed enthusiastically of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, stating in a Parliament speech "And I’m delighted to speak alongside so many impressive colleagues who really understand this, and alongside Professor Klaus Schwab who literally ‘wrote the book’ on the 4th Industrial Revolution. Your work, bringing together as you do all the best minds on the planet, has informed what we are doing, and I’m delighted to work with you."[10]

On 25 June 2021, The Sun reported a world exclusive that Hancock is having an affair with a millionaire lobbyist. His position was untenable and he resigned the next day.[11]
