Maxine Peake: Actress hits back over NHS ad 'hypocrisy' claim

Maxine Peake: Actress hits back over NHS ad 'hypocrisy' claim Actress Maxine Peake has rejected an accusation of hypocrisy for being paid to voice an NHS recruitment advert.

The Silk star was responding to a Mail on Sunday story that drew attention to the fact she had previously voiced fears about government health funding.

In the article, Conservative MP Simon Hart said she was "hypocritical".

Peake said her fee wouldn't have gone back to the NHS if she had returned it, and that she donated it to The Salford Foundation Trust children's charity. BBC News
