[emmie]

so he has, what a weasel -

[douglas9401]

A sad affair.

[aelmpvw]

and if his girlfriend gets divorced from her millionaire husband she'll receive a fortune in alimony, doesn't seem fair does it?

[emmie]

perhaps he will contest it on the grounds of her infidelity

[dave50]

He should have been sacked immediately, Boris was an idiot not to.

[LadyCG]

I can't believe he ditched his wife too. Poor woman deserves better.

[emmie]

fifteen years of marriage - numerous children, all down the drain.

[gulliver1]

Thought this was all discussed on A/B last night.

[burlyshirley]

He's ditched his wife as well ?? She's probably better off !!

[david small]

People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. They should also draw the curtains.

Maybe, you don't know, neither do I what the circumstances are in someone else's marriage.

[CrapAtCryptics]

Steve Barclay would have made a better replacement than javidJ

[Khandro]

You may think him a rat, but the biggest rat is the guy who trawled through the tapes to find this moment, & then "felt it my duty to report this", ha-ha, but his duty didn't extend beyond accepting a large fee from the Sun.

Also there are limits to Employee Monitoring: Jeremy Hunt has pointed out that it is unacceptable to survey people in an office in this way.

I thought that generally, employers are not allowed to listen to or record conversations of their employees without the consent of the parties involved. ... 'Meanwhile, video cameras can be installed in areas only where there is no “reasonable expectation of privacy,” ' that is to say, hallways & entrances etc.

Does anyone smell Dominic Cummings behind this? - just wondering.

[youngmafbog]

Good, now let the investigations into the contracts with his family, Landlord, mates, his floozies brother.

[Canary42]

Yet he will still get a handsome Minister's pay-off. It appears to me that MPs are the most corrupt self-serving species to ever exist.

[pixie374]

Khandro, you can record conversations, providing "one of the parties" knows. It doesn't need to be all of them. Video cameras have to have a CCTV sign.

[Just-Jude]

Sorry to see Matt Hancock forced out of his job. He has led the NHS tirelessly through its biggest crisis ever, only to be axed for a minor indiscretion. I hope he's rewarded with a Knighthood, he deserves one more than most.

[pixie374]

That would be silly, JJ. He needs to have the same fine or punishment that anyone else would have got for the same. Whether he did his job properly or not, is a different matter.

[burlyshirley]

I think jj is being his usual tongue in cheek self ...

[pixie374]

Hope so :-)
