Glitter Balls?

Is Ed Balls about to become 'Glitter Balls'? 

The Daily Mirror has reported that the former MP has signed up for this year's competition, although the story contains no evidence, not even a quote from an unnamed source, to indicate that there is any truth to the story.

It's not easy for MPs on Strictly. While Ann Widdecombe did well as a novelty act, Edwina Currie, who was actually reasonable, was first out of the competition when she took part.
