Ever since Conservative MP Matt Hancock entered the I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! jungle, people across the country have been voicing their opinions on social media. His fellow campmates, as well as the British public, have had many questions about his appearance on the hit reality series.
His stint on the ITV show came as a shock to many when it was announced. Controversy around the appearance stems from his resignation as Health Secretary during the coronavirus pandemic, when he was caught on CCTV having an affair with his former aide Gina Coladangelo.
The scandal made headlines at the time as Mr Hancock broke his own social distancing guidance during lockdown. The fury over this could be seen this week, when Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice flew a banned over the Australian campsite, with the words 'Covid Bereaved Say Get Out of Here' written across it.
