UK MPs Spend 1,000 Hours A Year On Twitter

They may sit on different sides of the aisle, but UK Members of Parliament share at least one thing in common: they love Twitter.

According to new research, MPs are spending about 1,000 hours a year on Twitter. And to put that into perspective, the House of Commons sat for 540 hours and 13 minutes in the 2009-2010 session.

The Telegraph reports that the number of MPs on Twitter has more than doubled, going from 111 in January last year to 275 today.
