Pressure is mounting on Matt Hancock to resign – and on Boris Johnson to call in the Government’s ethics adviser – after the Health Secretary was caught kissing a close aide in breach of coronavirus restrictions.

A video of Mr Hancock in an embrace with Gina Coladangelo was published on Friday night, after The Sun published stills from the CCTV clip earlier in the day.
