(National-UAE) Britain’s Labour Party has shed support among Muslim voters as the Israel-Gaza war shapes their political thinking in an election year, according to new polling.
Historically a solidly Labour voter base, just 43 per cent of Muslims now say they would support Keir Starmer’s party, a Survation poll found.
Almost a quarter are undecided, with 70 per cent saying the stance British politicians take on the Israel-Palestine conflict will be “very important” to their vote in 2024.
Leaving out the undecided voters, Labour has 60 per cent support compared with an estimated 86 per cent at the last general election in 2019.
