The Hell vs Matt Hancock 2021-02-22 by DatsNotDaMetulz | 17 Comments | In the UK, anger is brewing against the government for handing multi-million pound contracts relating to the Covid-19 pandemic to friends and donors of the ruling Conservative Party and its cabinet members, particularly Matt Hancock, the current Health Secretary.
In response to this, British metalcore band The Hell, normally known for their humorous take on metalcore (as well as covers of East 17's "Stay Another Day" and Nickelback's "How You Remind Me"), have released a new 38 second track titled MATT HANCOCK, YOU SHADY FUCKING CROOK. All proceeds from sales of the single go to the Good Law Project, which campaigns to hold those in government accountable for acts of corruption and cronyism. A link to download the song can be found at the end of the article, after The Hell's statement on the track:
"Enough is enough.
An acquaintance and former neighbour of Matt Hancock is supplying the government with tens of millions of vials for NHS Covid-19 tests despite having had no previous experience of producing medical supplies.
The deal was sorted via a WhatsApp message to a guy called Andy who makes takeaway boxes.
Matt Hancock has unlawfully hid dodgy deals from the public.
Last year, a SEVEN week-old firm with links to Tory peer landed £122 million PPE contract.
All proceeds from this song go to Good Law Project goodlawproject.org who fight for these crooks to be brought to justice.

im so tired of tories man
| | | What da hell
| | | best name for a song ever lmao
| | | capitalism keeps on winning
| | | Actually a serious song from them, albeit with the subtlety of a rampaging rhino.
| | | Not heard someone use 'clams' for money for a long time. Very refreshing.
| | | Such interesting times we live in
| | | worst of all is that this won't even dent their polling numbers
| | | I wish I didn't have to live in a country where the majority of the population think these charlatans in charge right now are the best we can do.
| | | Trump compared to these wanker is a kid.
| | | Fuck the tories and we could do better but the working and middle class are so drunk on Sun and Daily Mail bs or the Guardian's bs that we'll never see a true alternative like Jeremy Corbyn for a long time.
| | | ' Sun and Daily Mail bs or the Guardian's bs'
i agree that the Guardian puts out some bs, but id say its a lot less and of a totally different sort to the Sun and Daily Mails
| | | throwback to when the us arm of the guardian had to write a long editorial addressed to the uk side about how shitty they were being promoting transphobia
| | | True but it still distorts anything to the left of tony blair as being something unscrupulous and as a threat to middle class interests. It openly panders to that insufferable Liberal identity politics that Biden in America thrives on as well as the Labour right in Britain. It also seems to endorse the view that criticising Israel is equivalent to anti semitism which is fucking stupid. Anyway sorry for the rant I just think the Guardian is the equivalent to the white moderate that MLK always warned people about.
| | | na i can totally see that. its why its always amusing when conservatives talk about the Guardian like its some far left Marxist rag
| | | This actually jams guys! Love it!
| | | Fuck the fucking tories
