    Labor candidate sorry for rape joke

    A Labor candidate for the federal election has apologised for sharing a rape joke online.

    Luke Creasey, who is running for the seat of Melbourne, is also in strife for sharing pornographic material.

    "It's been brought to my attention that some posts I shared on social media a number of years ago have been circulated," Mr Creasey told AAP on Wednesday.

    "They were stupid, immature and in no way reflect the views I hold today. I apologise for these posts which have been removed."

    Mr Creasey is the latest in a long line of candidates to come under fire for lewd posts to social media.

    The seat of Melbourne is held by the Greens' Adam Bandt.
