Angela Rayner has slammed Matt Hancock's appearance on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here as "offensive".
The deputy leader of the Labour Party appeared on ITV's This Morning today, where she spoke with hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield about the Tory MP's decision to head into the jungle. He will take on his first trial tonight, alongside other late entry comedian Seann Walsh, as they get covered in slime and bugs.
Appearing on the ITV show this morning, Ms Rayner insisted Mr Hancock should be in parliament rather than "squirming around with maggots". Mr Hancock has defended his decision to go on the show, for what is a reported £400,000 fee, insisting he wants to reach voters in new way and raise awareness of campaigns and issues important to him.
