Bedfordshire, UK - Nadine Dorries pictured at various events in her constituency. Pictured - Nadine Dorries MP right, with Alistair Burt MP at a function in 2011 Photo by Keith Mayhew Ms Dorries is expected to go into the jungle along with 12 other celebrities as part of upcoming TV Show "I'm A Get Me Out Of Here", which launches on Sunday night. She will become the first serving MP to go into the jungle, but as well as creepy crawlies and bushtucker trials, her decision has sparked outrage among her local constituency tory party who meet this week to decide on what sanctions to take. She has already had the House of Commons whip withdrawn and been rebuked by Prime Minister David Cameron and her fellow Bedfordshire MP, Alistair Burt MP. Mr Cameron has said Ms Dorries, 55, should be in parliament representing her constituents, not in the jungle, Mr Burt, sitting MP for neighbouring North Bedfordshire has hit back after Ms Dorries compared her decision to go on the reality TV show with his work for the Foreign Office “I am surprised that Nadine believes there is some similarity between me being abroad on behalf of the British people, including my constituents, and her taking part in a TV show in the jungle" adding that "“Whilst I am abroad I am in regular contact with my Westminster and constituency office via email and telephone. I understand that is not possible from the Australian jungle under the TV show rules." Mr Burt has been Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs for over two years.
