A former business minister diagnosed with cancer has left hospital to vote for the government’s Brexit bill.
Conservative Nick Boles, who is undergoing chemotherapy for a tumour in his head, said he felt “pretty grim” but he wanted to “represent my constituents” in Grantham and Stamford.
He posted a picture on Twitter of himself in a wheelchair and wearing a blue medical mask.
Mr Boles has been off work since his diagnosis last October.
He will be in Parliament to vote on amendments to the European Union (Notification of Withdrawal) Bill – which, if passed, will allow Brexit talks to get under way – on Tuesday.
