Would be funny if she doesn't want to be with him, and he just ends up losing absolutely everything. I say funny but, because it's actually quite a horrible situation for their respective spouses and children, what I really mean is "fecking hilarious".

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Hands up all those who haven't bent the lockdown rules over the past 15 months.
I’m from Ireland but yeah pretty much cannot think of anything I’ve done wrong in our country
Also I don’t make the rules that folks are required to obey
Just your Tory party then
Hancock showed good form on that snog. Two hands behind her back to secure the position, I'd vote for him.
Generally, those people are not in charge of publicly promoting the covid rules and restrictions...
I mean that's classic right, this yoke scrapes the bottom of the barrel & the first thing you think of is Starmer?
The barrel scraping started about a year ago.
Stepping down because of one miserly workplace affair, is he even a tory?
Why. Have you?
The difference is that we, the general public don't make the rules and don't go on TV telling everyone what they must and must not do and then do exactly the opposite.
Classic Tory Colin.
He should've just ran away from it all.
Cummings isn’t a fan - he seems to lack the self awareness to realise him tricking the PM into sacking a minister makes him sound like a detestable cnut. Also liking the narrative of Sunak being responsible for furlough despite every other major country doing something fecking similar.
#regimechage... I mean that sounds a bit coup like?
Many of us will have slightly bent the rules in some way shape or form behind closed doors, I’m not say all, nor am I saying “most”
just many
But “all of us” aren’t the rule makers, Hancock is in a position of power whom made the rules…..lead by example…….busted
I don't think he gives a feck. He knows he's a dick, and that many in the country think he's a dick. He just wants to be a big swinging dick.
Me, not broken any
Having said that, I did wear a mask in the supermarket yesterday when they are no longer required.
“If I hadn’t tricked the PM into doing something he didn’t want to do” is not the flex he thinks it is. It’s contemptible and should see him barred from any government building for life.
‘I worked against our elected head of government. Because I know best’
Absolute wounder.
Why do you feel the need to make excuses for him? It’s all going to come out about him now. He doesn’t need or deserve your sympathy. Save that for his kid’s knowing they have a shithouse dad
im sure he doesn’t need to work again, but who on earth would ever give him a job after this.
I haven't. Maybe I should be Health Secretary
This government has been riding on the wave of the successful Covid Vaccine programme, even though the vast majority of the credit should go to the NHS.
I am wondering how much this shambles will adversely affect their popularity.

What uni did you attend? That's the most important thing.
The thing is, it's better the devil you know. Despite everything, he's been dealing with the pandemic for 15 months now and has gained considerable experience. Is it the right time for a new boy to come in, especially who they've chosen?
They've been slinging dirt at him for a while now and now it's stuck. He's done the honourable thing, at least, but it may not necessarily be the best thing as regards dealing with the pandemic.
I'm guessing that's a CCTV image and some smart arse thought it might be fun to leak it to the press?
Poor Matt, I mean it's not as if he left classified Ministry of Defence documents at a bus stop in Kent. Oh wait, someone else did...

The guy's a flaming thundercnut.
Just because he’s been in the job doesn’t mean he’s the best person for it. He’s come across in that time as uncaring, in it for him and his mates and s a liar, one of the boys. There’s all kinds of mud yet to come out now that he’s our of office.
I don’t think that cctv is new, he was wanted out and the Tories found a way. He’s a dirt bag but just a cog in the machine of this particular grubby administration
What amazes me is neither of them appears to have known there was a camera there?
And they both work in this place everyday... my word, wonders never cease?
I read the furlough part as being if they hadn’t got rid of him there wouldn’t be one.
I don’t know how that squares up with the timeline though
Agreed but for me, it's more about the type of person you want to be. He could have come out of this looking like a champion of the people but now he looks like a spoiled kid that has had his chocolate bar taking from him!
I agree there is a 'whiff' of stage-management going on here... e.g. how come Hancock and his friend didn't know there was a camera covering the (exact) spot where they were doing their 'canoodling'? Lots of other sins may have been covered up by this 'affair', good day to bury bad news, perhaps?
He’s obviously got no control and no filter.
the other problem, is that he clearly has valuable insight into one of the biggest events in our recent history. But, now it’s just personal - you can’t believe a word he’s saying.
it was a hidden camera, hidden in a smoke alarm if reports are to be believed.
'Why' are 'you' putting so many 'words' in 'inverted' commas?
Mainly for emphasis and occasionally when a word or phrase might otherwise seem to be out of place, or not part of any quotation.
So its not only Hancock who's up to no good?
It seems that Erich Mielke's East Berlin Stazie have nothing on our boys!
