The Covid WhatsApp leak
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Chief Political Correspondent Nick Eardley lifts the lid on the leaked WhatsApp messages linked to Matt Hancock's time as health secretary at the height of the pandemic.
More than 100,000 WhatsApp messages linked to Matt Hancock's time as Health Secretary at the height of the pandemic have been leaked.
Journalist Isabel Oakeshott obtained the texts when working on the former Health Secretary's book - she's released them arguing it was in the "overwhelming national interest". But Matt Hancock says it was a "massive betrayal", and the messages were released in a "biased account to suit an anti-lockdown agenda".
So what's this all about - and why does it matter?
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Chief Political Correspondent, Nick Eardley, has the answers to these key questions.
