Sadiq Khan has dealt a low blow to Jeremy Hunt, dubbing the Health Secretary “gutless, spineless and heartless”.
The London Mayor showed off his stand-up credentials in a short video shared on Time Out’s Facebook page.
Hunt has been subject to a barrage of criticism amidst the junior doctors strike. In a statement to the House of Commons, Jeremy Hunt said the forthcoming strikes would bring “unprecedented misery” on patients, urging them to accept the new contract which has been heavily criticised for being unsafe.
Fictional news reporter Jonathan Pie also stuck the boot in to the much-loathed Health Secretary in this video, in which he struggles not to muddle up the minister’s surname with a cruder alternative.
Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
