UK Health Secretary is being mocked on social media after footage of him cheating his wife

RT reported that UK Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, has been mercilessly mocked on social media after CCTV footage of him kissing his aide was leaked. social media
The sarcastic comments posted on Twitter freely referred to Hancock’s professional life where as Health Secretary he was meant to lead the fight against the coronavirus pandemic and has been relentless in telling his fellow countrymen to keep socially distanced from each other.
The phrase “eat out to help out” – initially used by the government to encourage Brits to dine in restaurants to help the hospitality sector - started trending on Twitter on Friday in relation to Hancock.
One Twitter user said: "Health Secretary Matt Hancock and his Aide really did take ‘Eat Out To Help Out’ seriously didn’t they?" social media
Another user, Kirsty, said: "Well...Matt Hancock brought a whole new meaning to the 'Eat out to help out' scheme didn't he.."
Others recalled the government campaign to prevent spread of coronavirus indoors – “Hands, Face, Space” – and applied it in a different way to Matt Hancock.
Hancock responded to the leaked clip by apologising for breaching his social distancing rules which his department has been so eager to enforce, but failed to consider the adultery issue.
Despite the scandal linked to his name, Hancock has received backing from Prime Minister, Boris Johnson who has just married his third wife. social media
