Quite so Meds. A man who cheats on his wife and cheats on her so blatantly (apparently the affair was an open secret in Whitehall) can't have much claim to either conscience or ethics.
Imo there is more to come out on Mr Hancock.
The matter of his sister's firm being passed as being fit to be an NHs supplier. A firm in which Hancock owns 20% of the shares.

Hancock's neighbour being awarded a contract to provide vials for Covid tests.

And the matter of how Gina Coladangelo managed to acquite a Parliamentary pass.
Ms Coladangelo is a lobbyist, and the body that governs lobbyists (sorry, can't remember the name) states that they should not have them.
Hancock allegedly arranged this pass and it was made out in Gina Coladangelo's married name of Tress, which to me and a lot of others looks like a deliberate attempt to conceal the fact.
Plus it smells that a lobbyist and director and a major shareholder of the London-based lobbying and public relations firm Luther Pendragon, which offers clients a “deep understanding of the mechanics of government” is actually working right next to the Health minister with access to confidential information.
And that's before you take into consideration Hancock's poor wife.
But I think there is a smell of sleaze around and it's amazing that the press isn't on it.
