Are you a testicle-gobbling fame whore, a desperate wannabe Barbara Cartland, or an MP? https://t.co/gJTFc9c5D5

I believe irony was an old, old wooden ship. https://t.co/GoC5NdKELC

'We will discuss'
Whilst locking replies.
Utterly ridiculous MP who I wouldn't trust peeling potatoes. https://t.co/gDKR0qEFvj

Are you a sitting MP doing less than the bare minimum at the Commons or a shit TV presenter? You do need to decide though. https://t.co/HT0PFvHQG2

Surely that means you have to decide whether you want to be a politician or a TV presenter, or do such rules only apply to non-Tories? #ImWithGary https://t.co/bYEZpgIy4L

Richard Sharp needs to decide. Is he the chairman of the BBC or a political donor and loan giver to Conservative PMs? https://t.co/OPHgADQa2W

Just in the interests of balance and all that, here’s what Dorries said later (we must have missed the bit when Lineker became a Labour Party activist though).
Love this. 2.5m views in a couple of hours. Difference between Gary and I is, I’m a retiring, vintage Con MP starting out as a non BBC presenter. He’s a vintage @bbc presenter starting out as a Labour Party activist.
Only, you can’t do that when you work for a public service… https://t.co/yArMa9PBs1— Rt Hon Nadine Dorries MP (@NadineDorries) March 10, 2023
