A teenager who became Britain's first youth police and crime commissioner (PCC) last week is facing calls to resign after a series of offensive tweets.
Paris Brown, 17, was appointed to work alongside Kent's Independent PCC Ann Barnes representing young people across the county.
The Mail on Sunday reported she tweeted violent, racist and anti-gay comments from her Twitter account @vilulabelle.
The page has since been removed.
The newspaper also reported Paris boasted about her sex life, drug taking and drinking on the social networking website.
Keith Vaz, chairman of the Commons Home Affairs Select committee, said Miss Brown should be removed from the post immediately, the newspaper reported.
Nicholas Rogers, a Conservative councillor in Kent, tweeted: "Naive to throw a teen into robust political environment. Youth PCC nice bit of PR but ended in tears."
The appointment of a youth PCC was one of Ms Barnes's main manifesto pledges in the campaign ahead of her election as Kent's first PCC in November.
She said the youth PCC would receive £15,000 for the year, part-funded from her own £85,000 salary.
