Tweetminster Report

Interesting report from Tweetminster, the online service which, in its own words:

tracks UK politics in real time, showcases Members of Parliament and Prospective Parliamentary Candidates on Twitter, and ultimately promotes better and more transparent communications between voters and Members of Parliament

I was very surprised to be in the top 3 of all Parliamentary Candidates across all parties to be "mentioned" in tweets and a strong fourth place across all PPCs to be "Re-Tweeted".


Perhaps this is a good thing? Maybe it means I leave many hostages to fortune in the things I write. Indeed, only this week a journalist in Swansea was sent one of my Tweets by an opponent in an attempt to damage my campaign to become the next Conservative MP for Swansea West.


I like Twitter, I trust that the people who follow me, who mention me and who Re-Tweet me enjoy what I say and appreciate the not overly partisan way in which I present my own views and my take on the policies of all the political parties, including my own.
