The Birmingham Mail and Camden New Journal partnered with Twitter to hold online election forums between candidates and voters. At each newspaper’s event, candidates were quizzed on issues under hashtags and responded by Twitter, which was then followed by an open discussion around questions sourced from Twitter. Camden New Journal’s deputy editor Richard Osley says: “We were deluged with questions on the day and the nature of the format meant the politicians had to cut out the waffle and get straight to the point.”
