The Government Chief Whip in the UK is set to launch a petition calling on 'Celebrity Big Brother' contestant George Galloway to respect his constituents.
The petition criticises the MP for neglecting his constituents by taking part in the reality show while the House of Commons is sitting.
The petition reads: "We believe this egotistical action shows a shameful lack of respect for the people of this constituency."
"We call on him to represent and respect his constituents, not further his own ego, as he is by remaining totally out of touch in the 'Big Brother' house."
Hilary Armstrong, MP for North West Durham, said: "This week he missed a vote in the House Of Commons on Crossrail and next week he could miss the chance to speak on the Equality Bill and the Work and Families Bill."
"Does he honestly think that his constituents would prefer to see him lounging about in the Big Brother house rather than debating issues as serious as equality?"
Galloway has been nominated to face tonight's eviction vote against Jodie Marsh and Pete Burns.
