Does anyone know if the election manifesto has been tweeted to the main media and political twitter accounts?

Manifesto has been tweeted to @BBCPolitics @tombradby @chrisshipitv @MichaelLCrick @MirrorPolitics @TelePolitics @GdnPolitics @timespolitics with no responses or mentions as yet. Any other suggested Twitter accounts to try?

Letter in today's Folkestone & Hythe Express thanking South East voters. They missed out the last sentence of the letter sent in ("5,454 chose a much better future with real socialism. I hope others join them soon."), but better than nowt.YfS, Max Hess

I’m not sure if this is meant to happen or not, but if you go to http://www.worldsocialism.org you currently get a Dreamhost page with the message "worldsocialism.org is almost here!"Max Hess

Danny Lambert has had election coverage on BBC South East Today twice today (in the 1:30pm news bulletin, and again in the main programme at 6:30pm).It may, or may not be shown again tonight at 10:25pm.The video here on YouTube is not brilliant because I just pointed a camera at the TV to record it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKlILdLWrFgMax

Can't someone turn Danny's 5-minute speech into a separate video clip that we can put on Youtube too as it's a good presentation of our case? More time than he/we are going to get on BBCTV South East Region or any other TV or radio programme during the election, longer even than our Party Election Broadcast

I've just made a trimmed down version and posted it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0Qhjp3PbV8If you want this trimmed version, I can upload it to WeTransfer from where it can be downloaded and then posted on YouTube from the worldsocialism YouTube account.Max

BBC TV South-East (covering Surrey, Sussex and Kent) have just let us know that a clip of a short interview which one of our candidates, Danny Lambert, did when he was at the hustings at Southampton University on 1 May will be broadcast either tomorrow (Friday) or on Tuesday in the local news at lunchtime and early evening (half six).

I will look out for that and record it.Max

Might be an opportunity here for someone to ask to participate in this debate?  “BBC Radio Kent is giving you the chance to question the key politicians who want your vote at this month’s European elections.   Julia George will host a special event in Dover – the Gateway to Europe – on the evening of Friday 16th May.  A limited number of tickets are available. To apply, e-mail radio.kent@bbc.co.uk – including your name and a daytime contact number.  Applications close at noon this coming Friday.”  https://www.facebook.com/BBCSouthEastToday/posts/10152387438618648
