Barrow and Furness MP John Woodock has spent the night in
hospital after falling off a ladder at his home.
The Labour MP told followers on the social networking site Twitter that he
had been taken to accident and emergency after being “an eejit”.
He thanked the paramedics who stretchered him from the “scene of eejitry” and
said he had been “lucky”.
Mr Woodcock tweeted:
“Lucky escape after neck brace, CT scans & palaver. Staff superb. Me
bashful.”
He told parliamentary colleagues on Twitter that he had been trying to put
the contents of his wife’s boot in the attic at the time, describing it as “a
valuable lesson”.
