The MP and I'm a Celebrity contestant will present his dyslexia bill to the Commons as a newspaper releases early exerts of his new book.
But he has faced fierce criticism from fellow MPs and the wider public for doing the show while parliament is sitting, and over whether it was appropriate after the significant role he played in the government's handling of COVID.
In it, the ex-minister claims the Ministry of Justice put forward a plan to release"thousands" of prisoners days before the country went into lockdown amid concerns about the spread of the virus. "Yes, really: they actually thought this might be a goer. I was emphasising [my opposition] so hard that all of a sudden my chair could take the strain no longer and ripped, tipping me unceremoniously on to the floor.'"
"Unfortunately, this still wasn't the end of the matter," he wrote."Clearly someone in Whitehall still thought it was a good idea and kept pushing it, to the point that the PM asked to talk to us both. I made my views crystal clear."
