Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Best place for him really. Shame the entire cabinet weren't invited.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Publicity for his new book

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

So we might actually get to see him Eat Shit and Die

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

He's been suspended as a Tory MP for joining this.

Is he and Gina Coladangelo coprophiliacs? He said, he is dyslexic???

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Coprophages, not coprophiliacs - but, could be both…

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Indeed, an important distinction when you're a little peckish :D

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Golly event a little quip that I thought would at least raise a titter gets dissected here. Jolly good show what what

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

He’s desperately trying to stay relevant isn’t he?

Think he’s realised his political career is finished.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

I think the public will vote for him to do the challenges quite a lot which will be entertaining though

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Knob.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

And he thinks he's going to make a career out of showering in a bikini :Yikes: :sick:

Succinctly put, possibly the best and most accurate post of the thread so far :tu:

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

More "reality" garbage. Dont watch it, dont care who is in it. :D

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

I stand corrected. I did not know such word existed :erm: But I understand it;)

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Is he going as a contestant or one of the challenges? I don't watch it so that's my knowledge exhausted.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

I don't watch it normally, but I may make an exception and give Matt my undying support by voting for him in each challenge. This will give him maximum opportunity to get his "message" across, whatever that may be. That's why he's taken leave from his £60K job after all. :rolleyes:

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

It's amazing he just decides he can take a holiday from his job like this. Even has the temerity to have allies (i.e probably him) brief the press that he can do this because he 'won't be in government anymore'. Shows the contempt he has for the job he has now. Complete chancer who only wants to be an MP if he gets a top job.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Here’s hoping.

He’s convinced himself he’s going on a book tour or some sort of political campaign but he’s actually taking a holiday during term time for which he is getting paid by ITV as well as getting his MP’s salary. Meanwhile back in his constituency he’ll be paying someone else to handle his caseload, then claiming the cost back from the taxpayer.

Utterly appalling behaviour.

When your MP stops working. Get a numan.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Any MP who does this one would hope they would get their comeuppance next time voters go to the ballot box.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

I don't think he'll stay for the next election.

It's possible in his head this is the first step of his riding back into front-line politics via public demand but more likely he has given up after not getting into the cabinet again and will instead try to be a celebrity.

Of course he doesn't even have a whip now

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

If there's a public vote to decide his PPE supplier against venomous creatures in the bushtucker trials then I'm all in! But it may be an expensive year when I vote for a pub landlord as preferred supplier multiple times!

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Are MPs not allowed to take holidays or maternity leave?
It was ok for Gordon Brown to go gallivanting around the world. Check the register of MPs interests for 2010/11.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

What's wrong with that? ;)

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

I didn’t realise Hancock was having a baby?

Couldn’t he have his holidays during one of the Parliamentary Recesses?

btw, nice whataboutism - strange how you mentioned Brown from over 10 years ago, and not Johnson from last month…

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Really? I thought it was fair enough to call out an attempt to equate childbirth with appearing on an ITV gameshow.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Demonstrates the staggering levels of hypocrisy of where it's ok for certain people to not represent their constituents, 365 days of the year.
If it's perfectly ok for somebody not to be representing their constituents for up to 6 months, it should equally be ok for a few weeks.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

It’s not OK for anyone to do it - no one has stated that…

You need to go back to your day job of defending Russia and the Energy companies…

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

So where have others been severely criticised for not being available for their constituents?

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

You’re clearly off your meds if you’re persisting with the idea that maternity leave is in any way comparable to going on a TV gameshow.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

Dorries was severely criticised for that and also not declaring the fee from ITV.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

In fairness to nomadking here if Hancock wants to trouser some money and raise his publicity by doing something else then he won’t be the first (or last) MP to do that.

It’s up to the electorate to bin him next time out.

Re: Matt Hancock to compete in 'I'm A Celebrity'
 

I'd rather he choked on it......
