Nadine Dorries

Nadine Vanessa Dorries (; born 21 May 1957) is a British Conservative politician. She was the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health and Social Care from 2019 to 2021 and Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport from 2021 to 2022. She is the Member of Parliament (MP) for Mid Bedfordshire since 2005.
On 10 March 2020 she became the first British MP to test positive for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Dorries is seen as a strong supporter of Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
In 2012, she lost the Conservative whip after she took part in the reality TV programme "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" without telling the chief whip. It was returned in 2013 and she was re-admitted to the parliamentary party.
In 2023 she attacked Gary Lineker. She said he needed to decide whether he's a Labour candidate or TV presenter. Other people said things like "Do you need to decide whether you're an MP or whether you're a TV Presenter? Pot, kettle Black love!".
