Yahoo News Hugh Grant says UK is ‘f***ed’ and calls Tories ‘bonkers’ after Matt Hancock’s This Morning interview
Actor Hugh Grant has voiced his frustration at the government’s handling of the coronavirus crisis.
In recent weeks, the Notting Hill star has used his social media account to re-share tweets and posts criticising Boris Johnson and the Conservative party for their leadership during the pandemic and on Tuesday (12 May) he expressed his own opinion on the matter.
Grant, 59, reshared a clip taken from ITV daytime programme This Morning, which saw presenter Phillip Schofield ask health secretary Matt Hancock whether he was really saying that people could see their two parents separately 10 minutes apart, but not together under new lockdown guidance.
Meanwhile, Grant has used his time in lockdown to put his support behind the NHS, starring in a video thanking healthcare workers for keeping going during the pandemic as well as surprising a four-year-old cancer patient with a video as his Paddington 2 character.
