After yet another Twitter meltdown, outspoken NDP MP Pat Martin has decided to call it quits from the social media service that enabled his potty-mouthed anti-Conservative tirades.

“I apologize for my regrettable and inappropriate language yesterday. It seems some people shouldn’t tweet so with this, I sign off,” NDP MP Pat Martin wrote Thursday, shortly before pulling down his account.

Martin launched into a Twitter tirade for the ages Wednesday night, calling the Conservative Party “rat faced whores” and attacking Public Safety Minister Vic Toews’ personal life to express his displeasure over not being invited to an announcement for a local infrastructure project.

“I’m not ‘worked up’ so much as ‘fed up’ with the rat faced whores in the [Conservative Party] who neglect to invite me to announcements in my riding,” Martin wrote to CTV journalist Mercedes Stephenson on Twitter, who took note of Martin’s angry rant.
