Engagement
A typical post picks up 479 interactions against 453K followers, an engagement rate of 0.105%. Measured over 27 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 15K times each, and 3.25% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.25% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.1 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 27 posts sampled, 26% carry an image or video and 70% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 6.9K interactions, about 14x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Priti Patel MP's engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 80% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 09:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 26% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 70% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 26% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 70% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 427 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

So ‘No10 North’ is basically going to be a government funded influencer account for Burnham. Who knew 🙄 https://t.co/RETnLueVpD

The British government has sunk to a new low with Andy Burnham appointing a convicted fraudster to one of the most senior roles in government. This criminal will have access to classified intelligence and sensitive papers, so what vetting has been undertaken by the Cabinet Secretary and senior civil servants, or did Burnham just want to reward his friend and fellow plotter. Her hard Left views and policies she'll push will also undermine our economic freedoms and harm our economy. https://t.co/WmNA5Yw3A8

Andy from Manchester leads a morally distorted government which exists only for its self serving preservation & appeasement of the left. Labour are mortally bankrupt when it comes to the national security and defence of our allies. 2026 will go down in the history as the year when Britain walked away from its allies, from Israel to the Gulf states and failed to be a serious leader at the time of global strife - when the world needed leadership. https://t.co/eUueYj25AB

Andy Burnham has betrayed PC Harper’s family. He has let down our police officers who routinely run towards danger to protect us all. It is a travesty of justice to let PC Harper's killers walk free and a damming indictment of this Labour Government that Ministers will not block the release of these killers.

Labour and Ed Miliband keep spreading misinformation about complex issues in the Middle East and their anti-Israel rhetoric risks fuelling antisemitism. It's disgraceful, dangerous and irresponsible for Labour to misrepresent facts on the ground and it's appalling that they fail to criticise the Hamas terrorists who breach the ceasefire, refuse to disarm and harm people in Gaza. https://t.co/Z2MMM0fZq9

With tens of thousands of migrants illegally entering Spain, there is a risk they could find routes into Gibraltar and travel through Europe and head towards the UK. Spain has already granted amnesties to illegal migrants and this is encouraging more to come. The UK Government must urgently set out its response to these risks, the discussions it's having with European cities and the actions it will take. https://t.co/CtNc4LQ7pq

Labour’s reckless £35 billion Chagos surrender deal fell apart under the Starmer government and it’s high time that Andy Burnham tore up this atrocious surrender treaty and put Britain’s security and hard-pressed taxpayers first. https://t.co/Us5tRo5ycV

Labour has pushed the U.K. into record levels of debt - now almost £3tn. By the end of July, public sector net debt stood at £2.985tn — roughly £96bn higher than a year ago. Under Labour the U.K. is spending more on debt interest than we do on defence, police, and prisons combined. Labour’s economic mismanagement will have significant consequences for years to come. https://t.co/f5S37Vdfux

PC Andrew Harper’s killing was horrendous and deeply shocking. He was a respected police officer, he was a husband and a son. Thanks to his devoted family we worked together to honour Andrew’s life by introducing Harper’s Law - a law to give mandatory life sentences to those who unlawfully kill an emergency worker in the course of their duty. Andrew's killers were the very worst of humanity and should be stripped of their freedom and face their full sentence. It is utterly shameful that the Labour government is looking to release his murderers from prison early. Labour must stop this and honour Andrew's memory and respect his family by ensuring his killers serve their full sentence. https://t.co/LwzHQzXP4H

- What is Priti Patel MP's engagement rate on X?
- Priti Patel MP (@pritipatel) has an engagement rate of 0.105%, based on the median interactions across 27 original posts from the last 30 days against 453,235 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.105%, Priti Patel MP sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,048 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @pritipatel have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @pritipatel post?
- Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.07 posts per day across the measured window.
