Method
Ads from 18 July claimed "Greens surge in the Greater Manchester mayoral race", citing "New data from 3,000+ residents", and urged supporters to "vote tactically - vote Green first" on 30 July. The squeeze line "Replace Labour, Stop Reform" presented the Greens as the alternative to both. All the ads ended between 29 July and 1 August.

Method
A set of ads from 21 July said "Andy Burnham has become PM with almost no scrutiny or mandate" and has "backed yet more tax rises", each passing a million impressions. The petition to "demand a general election NOW" (from 23 July) turned that attack into sign-ups. A new petition from 30 July said "Nobody voted for a universal death tax".

Method
Petitions from 30 July said "victims deserve better" and opposed early prisoner release, with a victims' video from 1 August. From 31 July, ads and a petition used BP's exit from the North Sea to accuse Labour, and in some versions the SNP, of managing the industry's decline.

Method
The largest ad (500K–600K reach, £5K–£6K) introduced Burnham as doing things "differently", and a smaller one said his "first pledge as Prime Minister is to end rough sleeping". All asked people to sign up, and all ended by 29 July.
