«If we were to judge from Twitter activity, Germany’s political landscape would look much different than the reality»
MEPs of the EPP group tweeted more than all other parties and increased their amount of online conversations week after week. Also looking at the tweets-to-MEPs ratio, EPP deputies proved to be more active than previous weeks. They ranked third, behind the EFDD and the Greens/EFA.
In the run-up to the 2019 European elections, EuVisions kicked off a special project centred around the current members of the EU Parliament.
Out of a total number of 750 MEPs, we are tracking the online activity of 666 deputies on Twitter, through their profiles. Currently, we are collecting all the tweets sent by MEPs, as well as, the reactions to the former, in terms of retweets and replies.
If you would like to have more information about the project, please write to Martina Zaghi, at m.zaghi30@gmail.com.
