Isabel Oakeshott: "I Hope Matt Hancock Doesn t Want War" over leaked WhatsApp Messages

Isabel Oakeshott hopes Matt Hancock doesn t want to go to war with her after she leaked thousands of his WhatsApp messages, telling Tom Newton Dunn: "That would be a very unfortunate and ugly business... this is much bigger than him." Rishi Sunak has defended the official coronavirus inquiry as the “right way” to scrutinise the handling of the pandemic after the extraordinary leak of the former Health Secretary’s messages. The Prime Minister urged people not to focus on “piecemeal bits of information” after a trove of more than 100,000 WhatsApps linked to Hancock’s time as Health Secretary were handed to the Daily Telegraph. Mr Hancock was considering legal action while strenuously denying claims he rejected advice to give coronavirus tests to all residents going into English care homes during the pandemic. #matthancock #isabeloakeshott #leakedmessages
