Every year I try to avoid but the wife loves it, so I have an outside punt on it to make it interesting.This year I’ve had a punt on Babatunde, seems a happy chap, can be quite funny and judging by the lingo I’d imagine is down with the kids, 20/1 I thought was generous, so strictly for financial purposes, he has my blessing.As for the others, Boy George is quite odd, quite needy and trying his best to cause agg, and it’s for that reason we need him in there to keep things watchable.If the show was a league table Hancock started off with a points deduction for me, but it’s a bit of fun you can’t watch these things with your political goggles on, pains me to say it, but he seems alright, but then again, MPs are the nations best salesman, so he’s trained for this.Other than that, not arsed who wins long as there’s drama.6

I won't watch it on principle, but has anyone in the jungle actually asked Matt Hancock about the court ruling that it was unlawful to send untested people into care homes? From what I've read elsewhere he is concentrating more on his affair, than a decision that cost many families to lose a loved one unnecessarily. No doubt he is there to deflect from that dreadful decision and sadly it appears to be working.5

I don't believe anyone mentioned the care home fiasco.
More complaining that they couldn't meet up with loved ones0 -
It’s a reality tv game show not question time.11

Should there then not be boycotts of the show instead of hatred towards Hancock... It was ITV who asked him to go on it, because they wanted to whip up the drama, and get everyone talking about it.
Well their plan has worked2 -

This is a thread about I'm a Celebrity, not fu*king Matt Hancock, there are other contestants, and yet once again a seemingly normal thread about a normal ( if boring at times) reality show on TV has become a party political broadcast...🙄2

Matt Hancock is a politician and a contestant on I'm a Celebrity, so perfectly reasonable to discuss both. I could say all those who choose to criticise me are ruining the thread.
Do any of you actually think it is acceptable for a serving politician to take part in the show, especially one who has made so many bad decisions? He is there for one reason only, to deflect from those terrible decisions.
To answer an earlier question, Boy George has a nasty side to his character, but he isn't a serving politician who should be working for his constituents, not playing games in a jungle.7 -
I'd considering chaining up a rent boy and beating him with a chain, more than a nasty side but that's just me.
Anyway, can covid talk be kept to that thread ?9 -

It's quite interesting watching Matt Hancock in the jungle because he reminds me a hell of a lot of some of the people I have worked with over the years. Not anyone specific or in particular, but just a certain "type".
They're usually successful and rise to the top of an organisation because they appear to be very driven and focussed, totally convinced in their own ability and not afraid to make "tough decisions". Perfect "leadership material" is normally how they're categorised, primarily by people already at the top who can see their own personal characteristics being replicated and demonstrated, which is clearly a good thing (in their eyes).
The thing is these same people very often suffer from a total lack of empathy or understanding of anyone else's position or feelings. Things can be very black and white or matter of fact. They also seem to be able to detach themselves from reality for periods in order to focus on specific things - like for example grabbing stars when you're surrounded by snakes, which are meant to be your biggest fear. They don't necessarily choose to ignore others, they just have no comprehension that what they're saying or doing may not be the view of everyone concerned.
In some respects we all need people like that in the world otherwise nothing would ever get done and you end up in endless discussions going round in circles with nobody actually making any difficult decisions. Doesn't mean they can't be absolute c***s as well though.5
