#UK: Health Sec. Hancock Broke Social Distancing Rules, Having Affair With Aide

[world politics news]


Britain's health secretary has been accused of violating social distancing rules by having an affair with an aide in the health department.
  
Gina Coladangelo, a university friend of Hancock, was handed a £15,000-a-year role last year as a non-executive director at the Department of Health.

On May 6, when images of the two kissing are said to have been taken, England's law banned indoor social gatherings of people from different households - while guidance urged people to stay two meters apart and avoid "face to face contact."

The Labour Party is calling for his resignation, while Prime Minister Boris Johnson says he had apologized and considers the matter "closed." Hancock says he will not resign.
