A viral video is doing the rounds, claiming to show the former health secretary Matt Hancock cleaning his bottom at Glastonbury. In the video, a man in nothing but yellow boxer shorts is seen dipping his face into running water at what is said to be the festival site before pulling his shorts open from the back so as to allow the water to caress his buttocks. The man then rubs the water in his crack, before wiping his legs and turning the tap off. @zapzapzappala Glastonbury is a weird place, big up Matt Hancock #glastonbury #shower #tap #glasto #hot #fyp With the video lasting just 10 seconds, it is difficult to get a proper look at the man, especially as a front shot of his face is never shown.
