Study: Farage and Corbyn top TikTok, Burnham's hyper-local campaign
New research suggests that Reform UK leader Farage and leader Corbyn are the most effective performers on TikTok. Meanwhile, Labour mayor Burnham spends £8,000 on hyper-local ads ahead of the Makerfield vote.
According to a new study analyzing over 11,000 TikTok posts, Reform UK leader Nigel Farage and former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn are the most prominent figures on the platform. The research indicates that the right-wing Reform UK leader is the most effective content creator on the video-sharing site.
Meanwhile, Labour mayor Andy Burnham has launched a hyper-local campaign ahead of the June 18 vote in Makerfield. He has spent £8,000 on online advertisements championing niche local concerns.
Labour is running two distinct campaigns in Makerfield. Burnham sticks to his own upbeat pitch, while the party's campaign machine is going on the attack against Nigel Farage's Reform UK.
