Matt Hancock set to face MPs in Parliament this week for first time since I'm A Celebrity

Matt Hancock is set to return to Parliament later this week for the first time since starring in the latest series of ITV's I'm A Celebrity.

The former Health Secretary will appear in the House of Commons on Friday, 2 December, to attend the second reading of his Dyslexia Screening and Teacher Training Bill, according to the PA news agency. The West Suffolk MP is also expected to spend time in his constituency this week after flying back to the UK.

Hancock named raising awareness of dyslexia as one of his main reasons for signing up for the ITV show. A spokesperson for the MP said: "By going on the show, Matt has raised the profile of his dyslexia campaign and has used the platform to talk about an issue he really cares about in front of millions of people."
