Tory MP Andrea Jenkyns has been left with whiplash and concussion after swinging on her chair in a meeting.

The politician, who represents Morley and Outwood, posted a picture to Twitter showing her on a stretcher after sustaining the injuries.

She thanked staff at the Leeds General Infirmary, where she was treated, with the hashtag #AccidentProneTuesday.

In a reply to one follower, Ms Jenkyns added that the incident had "involved a radiator."

She wrote: "That's the last time I swing on my chair during a meeting! Whiplash and concussion.

"Thanks so much to all the wonderful staff at LGI. #AccidentProneTuesday"

Followers flocked to social media to wish the Brexiteer MP well, although some poked fun at the accident.
