Cabinet minister Grant Shapps is responsible for the Conservatives' election campaign. As well as maintaining some odd Twitter habits.
It's also resulted in a lot of confused people:
1.

2.
Why on earth does Grant Shapps follow me? Maybe it is to find out my opinions on non league football. #thatllbeit
3.
I'm being followed by @grantshapps MP. Why would he follow a muthafu*ka like me? I'm now following him back. Obviously! #UnderManners
4.
I'm being followed by a member of the British parliament, @grantshapps. Is it because I like the Prime Minister show on @cspan?
5.
Why on earth did Grant Shapps follow me for about a week then disappear? #StalkedByMP

Errrm, Why does @grantshapps follow me? I mean, hiya and all, but being a creepy Lib Dem I must be scaring the hell out of him.
7.
I've now been followed by @grantshapps for the 3rd time. Is this is a record? :-/

On Twitter @grantshapps has followed and unfollowed me 3 times. I assume he does this to everyone. Maybe he's lonely. #bbcqt
13.
@grantshapps curious to know, as I'm not a constituent of yours, why would you follow me? #charmed
14.

15.
.@grantshapps followed me, unfollowed me, and is now following me again. If you want me to write you some gags, just ask. No need to be coy.
16.
@grantshapps thanks for the follow - is there a common interest we share ?
17.
@grantshapps With respect, I don't want your follow as your party is democratic cancer, it's MPs tumours. Thanks but no thanks! #Blocked

19.
I wonder whether algorithm, staffer, or a bit of both just gave me a follow from @grantshapps. Blocked.
20.
Oddly, @grantshapps used to repeatedly follow me then unfollow a few days later. This went on for about 6 months and then abruptly stopped.
21.
@KateVotesLabour he was one of the first to follow me. I think at one point my followers were @sjhutchinson and @grantshapps. It was weird.
22.
Oh god, @grantshapps is following me again. I thought he'd given up on this auto follow nonsense?
23.
http://twitter.com/grantshapps has decicided to follow me again , I wonder why, he wouldn't respond last time he followed me ????????
24.
"Grant Shapps MP (@grantshapps) is now following you on Twitter!" That moment of terror that comes to us all, however big or small.
25.
I keep getting followed, then unfollowed, then followed, then unfollowed by Grant Shapps MP. I think he's flirting with me.
You too can follow Grant Shapps on Twitter.
We can't guarantee he'll follow back.
