I'm A Celebrity Tory Nadine Dorries today attacked a fellow MP for taking time off for open heart surgery.

Ms Dorries slammed Steve McCabe’s attendance record shortly after she returned from Australia where she took part in I’m A Celebrity.

The Tory backbencher first took to Twitter to attack Mr McCabe, the MP for Birmingham Selly Oak, on Monday.

“Labour MP Steve McCabe who reported me to Standards Commissioner for time in jungle during half term has attendance record of just 63% !!” she wrote.

Mr McCabe, who worked from his sick bed, replied: “Imagine equating time off for open heart surgery with a paid for holiday on a reality TV show.

"Says all we need to know.”

But Ms Dorries, who was first to be dumped out of the jungle, refused to back down even after Mr McCabe pointed out he had been seriously ill.

Shameless Ms Dorries hit back: “I think with your 63% attendance record, you should be quiet. Obviously been taking a few holidays of your own!”

Today Mr McCabe, who has now fully recovered, said: “The facts speak for themselves – she’s known as Mad Nad”.
