Twitter have done some research into how algorithms impact amplification of political content. Interestingly for 'lefty twitter' it seems right wing content receives more amplification, particularly in the UK.
Examining algorithmic amplification of political content on Twitter
As we shared earlier this year, we believe it’s critical to study the effects of machine learning (ML) on the public conversation and share our findings publicly.blog.twitter.com
I think she's god awfulI see Dominic Cummings thinks Lisa Nandy would wipe the floor with Johnson. I’m biased as I voted for her in the leadership election but what do others think?

If principles means slagging off your own party for years while the country lurches from crisis to crisis you're spot on.Lisa Nandy has several points that will put off certain voters -
Northern
Lefty
Principled - ie. Critical of own party
Woman
Remainer
If she were
Southern
Righty
Unprincipled - ie. Vote as instructed
Man
Leaver
Then she'd be the next Tory leadership candidate

She didn’t have the ‘principles’ to call out Trump as the dog-whistle racist he is. So i imagine that Murdoch would love her.Lisa Nandy has several points that will put off certain voters -

Maybe "principled" is the wrong word.
I mean she has strong political views and generally sticks to them even when it is unpopular.
She is also willing to admit she got things wrong such as abstaining on the referendum vote when she now believes she should have voted against.
I like leaders who can reflect instead of doubling down.
It’s hard to reflect whether it’s Starmer or Labour as both probably gave fuck all in terms of ideas for the councillor to work with.It's not an excuse. It was a parish and district council election that was won with 600 odd votes.
Hardly a reflection on Labour or Starmer

To a degree, and you can certainly get a seat by working hard. It's not coincidental that Coventry is a Labour council while Warwickshire is Conservative, however.People are voting for a person, not a party, at that level.
I agree with that to a certain extent… but it can’t be bad thing to have some direction or ideas from the overarching party you are a part of surely?Maybe so, I just think at that low level the party is irrelevant. It's all about the individual and their standing within the community.

A drunk, past it bigot with a license to kill people...Now we know the real reason for spending millions on a press briefing room

The ‘content’ is retweeting a load of stuff taking the piss out of Starmer. She can rest assured though I probably won’t vote Labour in this constituency irrespective of whether she is Chair
The one you had a run-in with?
To be honest, I never checked her Twitter.
Vote for us - we have much better meaningless phrases.Can't wait to get out and vote for this, so exciting
The moonLooks pretty good to me. Focuses on voters main concerns over Labour (tax and spend). Not sure what more you want.
I would say the detail will be important but sadly the last few years have shown that few people are bothered about detail so it will come down to if they can convince people they can deliver on what they are saying.Looks pretty good to me.
