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 with whom his sister, Emily Gilruth was involved since its foundation in 2002.[1]

Early life

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

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.[3] He later studied computing at the further education college, West Cheshire College.[4][5] 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.[6] Hancock became a member of the Conservative Party in 1999.[7]

Political Career

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."[8]
