Matt Hancock resigned from his job this evening - almost 48 hours after the publication of a picture of him kissing a close aide, in breach of his own covid rules. (Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)

While Labour, the SNP and the Liberal Democrats called for him to go - just two Conservative MPs have publicly said he should resign - but there's been no tsunami of support from his own side either.

Away from the politics - perhaps the most damning assessment - in an open letter to the Prime Minister, some of the families bereaved by Covid, described Mr Hancock as an "embarrassment" to the government and said his position was no longer tenable.
