Nadine Dorries standing down as MP after blaming Johnson opponents

The former Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries will not stand for re-election, blaming the "sheer stupidity" of MPs in her party who "got rid of Boris Johnson".

[desmonddoyle]

Her fawning interview with BoJo was the living proof he only promoted people who were more stupid than himself.

[tashday]

There are not enough LOLs in the world for this.

[chrissilver]

The standard of the next parliament has gone up then !
How will the UK ever recover from such a devastating loss.

[bobecks]

Wow wasn't expecting good news today!

[markmcevoy]

Braking, mp that's goin to lose her seat stands down before it happens

[joewebster]

Nadine dorries sums up the standard of the modern mp

[liesmella]

It's a start but I won't be happy until they're all gone !

"Those that drank the Coolaid", she needs to stand down after using these words. Pissed off with how Americanised our politicians have become. Lies, deceat, and selfishness is all I see from the majority of our politicians, whatever party. The whole system needs changing out parliament is a joke.

Breaking news: Dimmest MP of all time stands down but still swoons over Pinocchio Johnson like a lovestruck teenager.

Getting in her application for GB News early before the stampede

She knew she would lose. I can see more of them taking this course of action to avoid the humiliation of losing their seats on the night of the next General Election. Dorries may try to forge a media career but i think it will be fairly low key, the odd appearance on Jeremy Vine or Pointless!!. She'll focus on writing a controversial memoir with enough dirty linen to make it a bestseller and then she'll churn out a few more dreadful novels. Definitely one of the least politically talented individuals to ever become a Minister!!

I doubt that a job with Channel 4 awaits.

Whoopee, Britain's Marjorie Taylor Greene

[symoncurtis]

Something about sinking ships springs to mind.

[harrymc]

She is in one of the safest tory seat which makes me wonder if she has fallen on her sword to let Johnson have her seat and continue as a MP.

[MrLaking]

the best thing to happen can all the tories stand down

[bboom]

Bahahahaha! I hope Channel 4 do an investigation into her. She's ridiculous.

[juliepage]

Nadine fully knows that the Tories are well and truly finished.

[janeaki]

She should do us all a favour and go now!!!

[lauralishes]

Hopes she takes her authoritarian online harms bill with her
