Nadine Dorries: Now people will listen to me

The Mid Bedfordshire MP Nadine Dorries said her appearance on I'm A Celebrity had made her among the best-known MPs and would help ensure her views were heard.

She told Stewart White she had missed no legislation and only three parliamentary sitting days during her time in the Australian jungle.

Ms Dorries learned today she has to wait until next week to find out if the Conservative Party whip, which was suspended during her jungle sojourn, will be restored.
