They ALL do it, don't they??

I wish he had stuck to the well televised interview he did where he was asked about Twitter (I don't think he was on it at the time, not sure). He said "Too many tweets can make a twat". Should have heeded his own words me thinks.

Seriously though he is not the only one to fall fowl of twitter usage, they all do it. I personally can't abide watching Parliament and seeing the MP'S using their mobiles tweeting etc. A really important subject could be being debated and all you see are MP's on their mobiles, ignorant in my opinion. I swear I saw one back bench MP doing a Sudoku one time. confused.

I agree it is getting to be a situation where a few people have closed their Twitter and Face Book accounts, Stephen Fry I believe got fed up with it for example. I don't use Twitter so I don't know if he has stuck to his view at the time.

It's a difficult one to call for MP'S isn't it. Not on it, fuddy duddy and not bothered to keep in touch with the electorate. On it and you suffer the type of comments posted on here. A bit of a no win situation I guess, just have to laugh it off and keep going and hope people see it for what it is, albeit sometimes it is nothing more than a modern day system of a Kangaroo Court and a way of abusing and threatening somebody with anonymity as many have found out to their sadness.
