When outspoken Tory backbencher Nadine Dorries returned to Twitter, the Scrapbook team rejoiced in the knowledge that the abstinence-backing, abortion-reforming MP would provide much cannon fodder throughout 2012. It didn’t take her long to deliver, with Nadine taking to Twitter to whinge about the state of the restaurants in the House of Commons, suggesting that [...]
Nadine Dorries provoked a storm on Monday when she casually invoked the issue of child sexual abuse to shore up her chauvinist girls-only “just say no” proposals for sex education. It now appears someone using a parliamentary computer has edited Dorries’ entry on Wikipedia to airbrush the sorry affair from the record: The alteration to the page, which was made yesterday [...]
All is not well on Planet Dorries. Two weeks after the Mid Bedfordshire MP introduced a sexist private member’s bill which would teach only girls the virtue of sexual abstinence and “how to say no”, Nadine has helped to advance the myth that child sexual abuse is linked to the behaviour of children.

Producers approached the Mid Bedfordshire MP following her admission this week that her blog was “70% lies fiction and 30% fact”. Dorries will feature in plot lines in which Roth’s character attempts to deduce which things she says or [...]
It seems the honourable member for Mid Bedfordshire is finally coming to terms with her own mendacity. Desperation to escape the attentions of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards has seen Nadine Dorries lay claim to the concept of “fiction-based political blogging” in respect of her taxpayer-funded website: “My blog is 70% fiction and 30% fact … I rely heavily [...]
UPDATE: Our protagonist has been in touch via the comments to explain that his phone was in fact “hijacked” by fellow revellers. Scrapbook is happy to correct the record of a post which is perhaps now a cautionary tale on who you leave your mobile with! World cup festivities combined with a “long lunch” have [...]
