Just stop it, always someone else at fault.

[lancechinnian]

Too busy writing her book and presenting her TV show to do her actual job as an MP?

[markwdavis]

Its not that its cos people truly hate you Nadine!

[deniserichards]

The fact that she refers to Sunaks Prada shoes and Saville Row suits in her resignation letter tells you the level that politics is being played at ...its beyond embarrassment if that is possible. These people are our elected decision makers

[badbooks]

Dorries has finally resigned in disgrace, just like her Obsession, Johnson

Maybe Nadine has not received her Peerage in the Royal Mail post and also maybe time for Nadine to start repaying the 5 months wages and expenses claimed by her and her 2 daughters in the last 5 months (£325, 000) !

[brianferguson]

Our thoughts and prayers go out to her Who have lost £80, 000 a year for doing less than their mother.

[mbrierleybrierley]

She wanted to extract as much as possible out of us, the taxpayer, that's why she hung on till now.

[cncit]

It's everyone else's fault that she hasn't shown up for Parliament for nearly a year?

[raymondharper]

Please, not another book! With such a distorted view of reality, she can easily get a job in the Kremlin

[Ghhyuttgg]

The shameless thing was this person ever being elected in the first place

[kait]

Just when you thought her career couldn't be any more embarrassing.

[davian]

No loss to anyone except her daughters

[peterscott]

We taxpayers pay taxes to fund the salaries of waste of space MPs like this. Scandalous!

[Super_Lancashire]

Why is she talking about the prime minister. The question was, why are you still on the payroll for doing sweet f all in your own constituenty as an sitting MP.

[nicholasgerrish]

It seems a shame, because all this has become an embarrassment to all concerned, and she definitely wasn’t going to be elevated to the House of Lords…..
Very silly!

[Psmith-ekhq]

Perhaps the police contacted her home as some people thought she might be dead, since few people at Westminster had seen her.

[clarencegreen]

She lives in land of delusion even about boris giving her entry in House of Lords

[lancechinnian]

A shame she wasn't able to 'juggle' appearing in Parliament.

[scampers]

She spills the beans as her book is coming out😂
