Matt Hancock has been interrogated by SAS veterans about his lockdown affair during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n
Appearing on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares, the former Health Secretary was blindfolded, bundled into a cell and questioned about the 2021 scandal. The former special forces operatives said they chose that line of questioning because the nation wanted to understand Hancock’s decision-making.<\/p>\n
The ex commandos accused him of \u201cweak leadership\u201d – something Hancock confessed to. It came after the West Suffolk MP failed a high assault course – and took a muddy beating from former Premier League footballer Jermaine Pennant.<\/p>\n

And, in another, they order him to stop running \u201clike a ******* ostrich\u201d.<\/p>\n During the interrogation, Chris Oliver, says to Hancock: \u201cYou think \u2018**** this, I\u2019m going to have a bit of that. I\u2019m going to break the rules here, I\u2019m going to break the rules on a number of occasions.\u2019 From sitting on this side of the table that\u2019s exactly how it went down.\u201d<\/p>\n Later in the show, the SAS instructors are asked about the interrogation. Instructor Mark \u201cBilly\u201d Billingham, who did not take part, said the team did not have \u201ctime\u201d to get \u201ceverything\u201d they wanted out of Mr Hancock.<\/p>\n He added: \u201cWe wanted to get to really know who he was going for\u2026 and his decision making\u2026 and yeah, we pushed as far as we could to get it out of him<\/p>\n \u201cI want to know, we all wanted to know\u2026 and yeah, I guess a nation does want to know, so we got as far as we could with him but it was hard work.\u201d<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> Hancock responded by claiming that, during his extra-marital affair with Gina Coladangelo, he was \u201cvery careful\u201d not to break the law – but admitted did not think about guidance that the Government was putting out at the time.<\/p>\n The special forces staff were less than impressed with his reply. Jason \u201cFoxy\u201d Fox, says: \u201cWhen we dish out a set of orders, we ******* live our life by that as well.\u201d<\/p>\n Former United States Marine Rudy Reyes said he wanted to get know Mr Hancock as \u201cnobody likes him\u201d.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cI just wanted to take him as a recruit, and let his actions and how he shows up for each task and how he conducts himself, that would dictate the way that I would treat (him) but we did notice quite quickly, he can\u2019t take criticism and we don\u2019t like that.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
