There's a near-perfect (.92) correlation between media coverage and a candidate's polling. 53eig.ht/1P8nJq9
Obviously the election is over now, so MPs do now exist! Hopefully next time there will be a bit more care.
It's OK by the @UKParliament advice, but it's easier to change twitter handles than they seem to think, and lots of ex-MPs have done #ge2015
More than one week since @UKParliament dissolved and 148 ex-MPs still have Twitter handles implying that they are still MPs.
.@johnpughmp Hi John, could you remove 'MP' from your name to help voters? It's also easy to change your Twitter handle.
You can change your Twitter handle, but bless @mariamiller2015 for not wanting to risk misleading voters standard.co.uk/news/londoner… #GE2015

@mpnomore Thank you, I've taken it off the name but can't take it off the address so I've put a disclaimer up as guided

@helenlewis @TiernanDouieb They've not worked out they can just remove MP from their Twitter name then!

@halfon4harlowMP You should remove the MP from your profile name now, Robert. There are no MPs now.

@prisonsorguk @ChrisBryantMP @ElectoralCommUK Feel free - and do find time to grow up
Good to see a large number of MPs changing their names, including the simple option of adding "4MP"! E.g. @ChrisBryant4MP

@ChrisBryantMP @ElectoralCommUK Thanks: but there is something dishonest about claiming to be someone you are not - I'll contact the Commons

@KevanJonesMP your twitter handle still shows "MP". Click on your name and you will see what I mean. Hope you avoid the snow today
