The Ten Worst MPs on Twitter: 7 – Jeremy Lefroy
Ian Dunt
15 May 2012, 12:00am
7) Jeremy Lefroy
Score: 11
Entertainment: 2
Informative: 4
Regularity: 3
Constituency: 2
Another remnant from the era when it was morally acceptable to auto-post press releases about an MP's diary. Lefroy's stream is made somewhat more surprising by his tendency to pop in every so often and write a personal tweet in the first person, lending it a schizophrenic, borderline-maniacal quality. Other than that it is the same tired product you would expect – countless Westminster Hall debates and the odd scrap of news about a local employer opening a motorway service station. The social media equivalent of light rain on an overcast day.
