Neil Parish, the MP for Tiverton and Honiton and the man now confirmed to have watched porn in the House of Commons in the sight of two female MPs, has confirmed he will resign from his seat.
He described his actions as “a moment of madness”, claiming that the first occasion on which he watched porn in the chamber was accidental, having been searching online for tractors.
Mr Parish admits watching porn twice in Parliament, in tearful interview with BBC.
“The situation was that – funnily enough it was tractors I was looking at. I did get into another website that had a very similar name and I watched it for a bit which I shouldn’t have done…."

Labour’s Deputy Leader, Angela Rayner, wasn’t convinced.
He was looking for tractors but ended up with porn actors?
Neil Parish must think you were all born yesterday.

Always terrified that I’ll accidentally watch porn during @BBCMOTD…. even if it’s just the highlights.

I actually think being a Tory MP might be more embarrassing than being caught watching porn at work

Fair to say that Neil Parish is now an ex-tractor fan.

BREAKING: We're hearing reports from Ukraine that the resignation of a Tory MP has had absolutely no bearing on the war over there whatsoever. Astonishingly, it looks like Tories can resign during wars after all x

To be fair to Neil Parish, the word 'tractors' is quite similar to 'free porn videos'.
