It's become something of a cliché to say Jamie Reed is the best MP on Twitter, but clichés come for a reason. This one originated from the fact that Reed is very, very good. There is too little constituency communication here, but apart from that it's the full package. He engages in political debate with anyone who challenges him and does so in an aggressive, intelligent manner which does not speak down to followers. He is senior enough in parliament to be an important source of information but his informal style is particularly well suited to Twitter. Most of all, he is very funny. Witty, smart, and someone you might actually want to go for a pint with: This should be page one, line one, in the 'how to' guide for MPs on Twitter.
