They are:

1. David Cameron

2. Russell Brand

3. Boris Johnson

4. Ed Miliband

5. Nicola Sturgeon

6. Nick Clegg

7. Jon Snow

8. Owen Jones

Chris Moon, head of insights & analytics at Telegraph Hill, said: "This analysis doesn't just show the people with the most Twitter followers: it looks at who's talking about political issues and has the platforms to make themselves heard. Politicians themselves often aren't as influential as the celebrities and journalists who talk about them and whose views are being shared."
