Blackpool South MP (ex @conservatives). Parody Account. Satire.

After accidentally liking a horrible tweet recently I thought I would make a quick thread showing some other times things like this have happened, I would hate to think anyone thinks I agreed with any of these accidents that I swiftly deleted... 🧵

I tend to prefer to post on Facebook rather than Twitter these days, it’s really handy being able to delete unwanted comments, a feature I think would be great on here!

If anyone is aware of any more loopholes that may allow me to cling onto this job and my wages any longer then please could they let me know!

Scott Benton MP has LOST his appeal against a 35-day suspension. He was filmed in Times investigation offering to lobby ministers and leak confidential information for money: https://t.co/7pIZb4aTYa. Paves the way for likely by-election in Blackpool South (Tory majority = 3,690)

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Very saddening when even your husband retracts his support for you 😢

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Unfortunately I have to be a bit more professional online nowadays than I used to be…

Fortunately this doesn’t extend to my husband, it’s great having someone to send to fight your battles for you 🥰🥰🥰

These recent open surgeries with constituents have been brilliant!

The only problem is they’ve been TOO busy if anything, hopefully I’ll be able to get round to everyone who wants to speak to me next time!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

I am absolutely FURIOUS 😡

I cannot believe an MP would be willing to leak sensitive information about this, how could an elected member of parliament be so stupid to go and talk to journalists!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

If anyone would like any clarification on anything I have said while standing as an MP please could you refer to this quote of mine.

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Regarding the meeting that has led to my suspension I would like to say I only said all those things due to the noisy and distracting environment I had found myself ambushed by.

I was in fact so disorientated by the cacophony that I even described the room as “quite quiet”.

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Just because I’m a politician people seem to expect me to know what is and isn’t politics 🤷‍♂️

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Does anyone think @GBNEWS would be interested in my intellectual hot takes?

Rumour has it I may have to start job hunting very soon!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

@ScottBentonMP Have you ever publicly shown an ounce of compassion for innocent Palestinian civilians who have lost their lives in this conflict?

It is a tragedy when innocent people from either side are killed, yet you scoff at the idea of wanting peace...

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Ridiculous. Why would anyone want peace?!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Great visit to Thames Primary yesterday where I spoke to the kids about the dangers of the gambling industry and how it can end up costing you your job!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

Can’t believe I had to delete this tweet because of the stupid added community context 😡

People should be able to say what they like on here without it being pointed out they are wrong or lying!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

@PolitlcsUK @DailyMirror It is well known locally that I am unanimously supported by my constituents, I look forward to winning any by-election by a landslide so I can return to the Commons and continue the great work that I do 👍🇬🇧

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

I was hoping people would have forgotten about this by now...

🚨 | BREAKING: Rishi Sunak faces ANOTHER by-election as suspended Tory MP Scott Benton is set to receive a 10-day suspension from the Commons

He was secretly filmed saying he could lobby ministers for gambling investors and leak confidential information to them

I actually think there is a good case to be made that the faster a car is travelling when it hits someone the less damage it will do!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

@reece_dinsdale I am a servant to no-one, and as the vast majority of the people I am supposed to represent actually resent me I would have no qualms in these being used on them!

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

This is disgraceful, if there weren’t Tory donors making good money from this process then there would be no upside to this at all 🤦‍♂️

[Not Scott Benton 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍊 @NotBentonMP]

I’ve decided to finally allow replies to my tweets again, just so anyone who can’t make it to the coffee morning can tell me what they think!
