Jamie Reed: He resigned immediately after Jeremy Corbyn was named as the new leader of the Labour Party.

So the producers of I’m a Celebrity think anti-Corbyn Labour MPs should eat kangaroo testicles and crocodile penis, and be buried alive? And we all thought the show wasn’t political…

The producers of I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! are trying to persuade an anti-Corbyn Labour MP to appear on the jungle-survival reality TV show.

Jamie Reed, MP for Copeland in Cumbria, a former shadow health minister, said he was approached shortly after handing in his resignation from the shadow cabinet within minutes of Jeremy Corbyn’s victory. He turned down the offer.

But Simon Danczuk, the outspoken MP for Rochdale, who has called the Labour party under Corbyn a “deluded, bullying cult”, said he could not comment on whether he had also been asked to take part, fuelling speculation he could be considering a trip to the Australian jungle with Ant and Dec.
