Hi I'm not from Britain and the Leader of the labor party Ed Miliband (atleast that's what it says on his profile) is following me. Does he follow just random people trying to gain popularity or something? I wonder how he found me.. I wonder whether there's someone hired to add people because he's got 44k in his circles
Personally, I would do nothing. It may be a scam and it may not. Try posting a "Vote Conservative" message and see whether he continues to follow you if you are particluarly worried...
People who I don't know end up in my following circle. I have setup several different circles on Google+, friends - acquaintances and those who follow me.
So, I guess it would be up to you. And, I don't know if someone is paid to follow people on Google+ for this person or not.
No I mean he's a big shot and is busy with other work like campaigns and stuff so I guess he's hired a person like a PA to get followers for him - my guess
I have all hubbers in following as well even ones that I know well as none of my friends and family know about my hubs I don't like known people reading my work

I've just reached a landmark of 100 followers (yay, me!), which might not seem like much, but it's built up pretty slowly over time, and I've made sure to interact with everyone I'm following regularly (106 now), checking out new hubs, etc. It made me consider an interesting question:How do...

You have not seen any activity from someone on HP, do you wonder what happened to them?I do. Did anyone wonder where I've been lately?

Is it worth sacrificing your hubscore to get more followers?I notice people do mass following in order to get more people to follow them, but I've also noticed it seems to have a direct relationship with a falling hubscore. So, Is it worth it?

Is it true that you can follow too many hubbers, causing your hub score to lower?I have been wondering if following a large number of hubbers can cause your hub score to get 'dinged'. I recently had a relatively new hubber (who shall remain nameless) tell me that following too many hubbers will...
