The #Wikidata query to find #ResPublicae accounts for MEPs has been updated on our frontpage:
https://w.wiki/62$8
It now includes languages and political groups so that you can more easily find accounts you want to follow (or mute!).
Great news! - In contrast to the lagging US #congress more and more Members of the #EuropeanParliament do have #Mastodon accounts.
Check out, if your MP is already there. If not, write to him/her to join! - This is how we dethrone the corporate sites. People of relevance in RL must engage in the #fediverse.
@FediFollows
As with the #journalists and #scientists, welcome them and #followfollowfollow
@HistoPol Thanks! Most #ResPublicae mirrors are hosted without the original account's explicit cooperation. Hopefully, more MEPs and #EU institutions will notice the benefits of the fediverse and take the lead themselves, so at some point we become redundant.
On #Wikidata you can also see a list of "official" fediverse accounts for MEPs and former MEPs:
