(ITV) Labour lost 33 percentage points of vote share in areas that are majority Muslim in the recent local elections, according to exclusive analysis for ITV News by Number Cruncher Politics.
People across England and Wales went to the polls on May 2 to vote for local councillors, mayors, and police and crime commissioners.
While Labour saw huge gains across the country, causing upset for the Tories as they took control of councils like Hartlepool and Rushmoor, there was a significant drop in support for the party among Muslim voters.
For months it’s been clear that the British Muslim community — traditionally Labour supporters — feel unheard and let down by the party over their stance on Gaza.
