Now the election has been called and your MP is no longer an MP (for the time being) we have dispensed with their weekly column.

Instead, for those who cannot do without their weekly dose, and in deference to the social media revolution sweeping the corridors of power we give you a Week of Political Tweets compiled by Political Reporter Tom Edwards.

@JoySquires "Fruitful day of campaigning made even better by getting home to the invitation to our son's wedding". #proudmum @PeterJLuff "Well said John Phillpot in Saturday's @WorcesterNews - our local NHS does deserve praise."

@JohnPaulCampion "Always interesting giving my #Worcestershire County Council report to #Bewdley town council - even more so when there is an election on!"

@WalkerWorcester "Good to see the great Mike Layland on his doorstep today. Twice Mayor of #Worcester and freeman backing."

@NeilLaurenson "Like @JasonManford, I was born when mum was 16, have 3 younger brothers and sister called Danielle. Unlike him, I am not a comedy genius."

@worcesterlibs "Great debate @CapnGownWorc last night. First appearance of our PPC Federica Smith - and @WalkerWorcester sounded very much like a liberal."

@HarriettBaldwin "Hey #WorcestershireHour Don't forget that from today if you hire a young person there's no employers' NI."

@JabbaRiaz "Welcome the policy on tobacco control, but it's 10 years too late we should be ahead of the game and be looking at vaping & nicotine replacement therapy."

@CapnGownWorc "A slightly delayed start to tonight's #pubpolitics session on Taxation. BBC and The One Show here filming a piece for Thursday's show."

@DickDelingpole "Tony Blair just has to fart and the BBC will make it their lead news item as words of profound wisdom."

@LynnDenham1 "Thanks to @eddieizzard for supporting @JoySquires @WorcesterLabour sunshine and hope in rainy Worcester."

@cllrfranoborski "Looking forward to sponsoring tomorrow's Kidderminster Harriers Match."

@CllrMattJenkins "Just took #votematch & unsurprisingly matched with the @TheGreenParty. Who's your #GE2015 match?"

@Mark4WyreForest "Just dropped off my nomination forms for the General Election."

@DuncanSharkey "MT @cathtm Just been charged £7.50 to park for 20 mins at B'ham Crown Court at the NCP #outrageous>£3.60 all day @myworcester St Martins Gate."
