Career

Stanton began his career working for Nottinghamshire Constabulary as a Special Constable and then Derbyshire Constabulary as a regular response police officer.

Having always had an interest in neuro-linguistic programming, hypnotism, body language and psychology, he pursued a media career in 2009. In 2011, Stanton said that he was asked by outlets such as MSN News, The Scotsman and The Independent to assess the truthfulness and body language of Rupert and James Murdoch and Rebekah Brooks during the News International phone hacking scandal. According to Stanton, his reports were circulated in the major media and were picked up as far afield as Australia and Japan, launching him into a new career and being dubbed by the Irish Mirror as "the human lie detector".

Stanton assessed the party leaders in the United Kingdom general election debates in 2015 and the candidates in the United States presidential election in 2016. In 2018, Stanton joined reporter Jennie Bond where he assessed the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
