6 November 2012 08:37199775So Nadine Dorries is to appear in "I'm a Celebrity.." She should know better. I can understand George what's is name doing it, he's an idiot. But Nadine I thought, was sensible.
Could you imagine our Charlie on the programme, certainly David Shaw wouldn't do it.
Peter Rees wouldn't have done it either, would he. Would he?
TerryQuis custodiet ipsos custodes? - 6 November 2012 08:39199778I agree with you Terry,
I like Nadine but doing this is wrong for an MP who wants to be taken seriously. - Jan Higgins

6 November 2012 08:41199779She is obviously likes to be in the media eye so is desperate for the publicity even if it makes her look like the idiot she must be to appear on that show.-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

6 November 2012 08:42199780funny though
george got in again
says a lot about politicsALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - 6 November 2012 08:43199781This will make BarryW's day..he is a big fan of Nadine. he will be able to spend weeks and weeks gazing at her now in hot sweaty down n dirty conditions in the Jungle..oh Nadine !!
Mr Cameron on the other hand will be able to happily throw darts at the screen in the privacy of his own home..
I guess MP's are not what they were. Shouldnt think she will progress much further in politics having put her name to this.email: dover7@msn.com - Keith Sansum1

6 November 2012 08:45199782such a fuss about nothingALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - 6 November 2012 08:57199787The point of this of course is that it will get people watching out of rampant curiosity alone...from non normal sources.
Dare one say it but members of The House will be looking in, It certainly spreads the viewing net...Ooh I'll have to have a look at this now. Wonder who else is on?
George was elected again Keef but in highly unusual even freakish circumstances.
email: dover7@msn.com - 6 November 2012 08:58199788just a desperate bid for cheap popularity, people will see through it.

6 November 2012 09:00199790paulb;
he was elected again, how it happened is neither here nor there
it jus shows how politics of all colours have lost there wayALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - 6 November 2012 09:19199795A celebrity's duty to be done
When a Celebrity's not engaged in her employment
Or maturing her ambitious little plan
Her capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is just as great as any honest man
Our feelings we with difficulty smother
When parliamentary duties to be done
Taking one consideration with another
A politician's lot is not a happy one
When parliamentary duties to be done, to be done
A politician's lot is not a happy one
When the enterprising Bürger's not a- Bürgering
Then she's entitled to be covered all in slime
She loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling
And listen to her fellow victims whine
When the hustler's finished jumping on her mother
She loves to lie a-basking in the sun
Taking one consideration with another
A politician's lot is not a happy one
When parliamentary duties to be done, to be done
A politician's lot is not a happy one
When the drunkard shows no sign of where her drink went
She nobly bids all alchohol farewell
When the juvenile delinquent to the clink went
She hung her mother's picture in her cell
When the cardshark's finished wiping out her brother
She buys a rattle for his little son
Taking one consideration with another
A politician's lot is not a happy one
When parliamentary duties to be done, to be done
A Celebrity's lot is not a happy one

- 6 November 2012 12:04199846I agree Barry - we won't be watching it.
Roger - 6 November 2012 12:10199849Cameron should sack her, I hope her constituents sling her out
- 6 November 2012 12:39199850She does not have a government job to be sacked from, she is just a backbencher and a bit of a rebel. Not necessarily a bad thing the latter.
- 7 November 2012 07:28199990Ah now I bet BarryW will be peeping in to the show,,who could resist..lol
Yes I think Nadine's political career may be short lived after this...her own constituency didnt know a thing about it..they were looking miffed as hell on Sky News last night..and the parliamentary party were hopping mad.
Here is a picture for those who dont know who she is...note a certain familiar face on the right lapping up her ramblings with a gleeful enthusiasm( usually anti PM ramblings) while the rest of the Tory colleagues remain stoney faced.
Its very hard to get a picture of Nadine without her mouth open..email: dover7@msn.com - Brian Dixon

7 November 2012 07:35199991init for the dosh,but can see charlie drooooooling at the prospect of a scantly dressed nadine.
- 7 November 2012 07:46199994I suspect you will find that she will not personally benefit financially Brian. Anticipate the earnings going to a constituency charity or an anti-abortion one.
She is wrong to do this but equally withdrawing the whip is an absurd over-reaction. - Jan Higgins

7 November 2012 08:52200004As she is not available to do the job she is actually getting paid for (she is getting our tax money by the way) she should be grateful it is only the whip that is being withdrawn in a 'normal' job she would have deservedly been sacked.-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.
------------------------------------------------------------------- - 7 November 2012 09:00200005True Jan but there are many Parliamentary presidents to this.
The most immediate and scandalous one is Gordon Brown who has barely attended the House of Commons since he was re-elected.
If she can do what she says she can do (I am not sure she can) and promote some key issues that concern her to a public who does not normally take any notice of these things, then she can argue that she is spending up to a month doing her job. - 7 November 2012 09:27200012Likewise the Irish republican MPs who never attend and refuse to take the oath yet draw their salaries and expenses.I'm an optimist. But I'm an optimist who takes my raincoat - Harold Wilson
