Mr Parish, a farmer by trade, said he intended to resign as Tiverton and Honiton MP over the weekend after revealing he first accidentally viewed the X-rated video after looking at tractors online.Ī statement from the Treasury this afternoon said: 'The Chancellor of the Exchequer has this day appointed Neil Quentin Gordon Parish to be Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead.' The Treasury announced the 65-year-old has been appointed 'Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead' - the conventional way for someone to resign from Parliament. Neil Parish today formally quit as a Tory MP after admitting watching porn in the House of Commons in a 'moment of madness'.
