What have we learnt from the ‘media’ election?
Fantastic to see the final @lboroCRCC report from their real time audit of how the media covered #generalelection24
A big well done (and time to relax) to @lboroCM colleagues David Deacon and Dom Wring

Cost of living, climate, NHS & housing all identified by Labour & LibDem voters as key influences on how they voted but totally peripheral to media coverage which, acc to @lboroCRCC, was overwhelmingly dominated by stories on the election itself (eg polls/PR), tax & sleaze
