I wouldn't call what the minister advocated either integrity or hypocrisy. But I would call it a reasonably good strategy for life.

If someone believes in the ideal but finds themselves not living up to it, what's wrong with acting as they wish to become? Good deeds are good deeds, even if they aren't done with the right spirit. And perhaps in time, the spirit will come.

I've always thought hypocrisy got a bad rap. At least those practicing it admit there are values they would like to be able to say they had. The problem comes more if they don't try work on making the saying a reality.
