Matt Hancock should stand down now and trigger a by-election
8 Dec 2022
EMBARGO: Immediate release
Responding to Matt Hancock announcing he will be standing down as a MP at the next election, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper said:
"Matt Hancock should stand down now and trigger a by-election.
"He's clearly not interested in the job anymore and would rather make money on reality TV shows than represent the people of West Suffolk.
"His constituents deserve better than a part-time MP chasing fame and fortune.
"Instead of making a fool of himself for a living, he should be helping his constituents through a cost of living crisis. The country needs sensible grown ups in a time of crisis not more Conservative party nonsense."
