Matt Hancock was spotted cycling around Westminster while Boris Johnson conducted his reshuffle today.

The former health secretary straddled an electric Lime bike in a suit - but no crash helmet - near other cyclists in Trafalgar Square this afternoon.

He looked at the ground while he waited for the traffic lights to change as a surprised moped rider stared at him.

Mr Hancock was booted out of the Cabinet by Boris Johnson after his affair with colleague Gina Coladangelo was exposed in June.

He left his wife Martha - who is battling long Covid - and shacked up with the businesswoman and the pair holidayed in the Swiss Alps earlier this month.

Mr Johnson today purged his top team of Gavin Williamson, Robert Jenrick and Robert Buckland - but Mr Hancock was not reinstated.

Instead Liz Truss, Nadine Dorries and Michael Gove were called up to high offices of state.

Mr Hancock was spotted in Trafalgar Square next to the junction with Northumberland Avenue this afternoon.

He stopped at traffic lights in the shadow of the statue to General Sir Charles James Napier, a military chief who conquered the Sindh province in what is now Pakistan.

The MP was a five-minute cycle away from his old stomping ground at the Department for Health, where he had his affair with Ms Coladangelo.

He was caught on CCTV snogging his ministerial aide in their offices, which was leaked to the press.

He has since left his wife Martha and shacked up with Ms Coladangelo, who has left her husband Oliver Tress - the founder of the Oliver Bonas brand.

Mrs Hancock is said to be feeling 'very low' in the wake of her husband's affair as she battles long Covid.

Friends the 44-year-old has been at the family home 'desperately trying to keep it together' for their three children.
