“Support for Reform UK among British Indians has tripled since the election, according to polling from a diaspora group that suggests Nigel Farage’s party is gaining ground in some demographics where it has struggled.”
Is this similar to Trump’s increased support amongst minorities before the last US election?
I see this as the potential future UK echo of the Latino vote flocking to vote for Trump in the 2024, getting him elected, but many of whom are now seriously regretting voting for and helping elect Trump… Given the ICE kidnappings of so many Latinos – quite a lot being violent kidnappings….
What’s the Hindi equivalent of “turkeys voting for Christmas “?
If Reform UK got into power British Indians would no longer be a thing. They’re on the list.
Indians are very right wing. My work has meant I’ve spoken to many and every single one has had right wing views. I guess the more surprising thing is they moved away from Tories.
I’m going to enjoy seeing them on leopards at my face
Why are the trees voting for the axe just because the handle is made of wood?!
I’m sure that will work out so well for them.
Obviously the leopards won’t eat their faces
Massive generalisation obviously but Modi is continuously elected. It’s not that surprising that socially conservative parties are attractive to sections of the Indian population.
Is this because they think reform will forcibly repatriate Muslims?
Many Indian families moved to the UK back in the 60’s and 70’s. They built lives for themselves and their families with no help from the Government, No benefits and all in the face of horrific racism.
So why are they angry, because they are utterly sick of being lumped together with all other migrants because they are “brown”
Many Indians are sick of being abused because so many people just see “brown person” so instantly presume they must be here illegally…
They want migration to be stamped down on because over the last few years they have become the target of many racist morons.
The best way to reinstate the protections we had from 3rd country immigration was the EU. Farage convinced enough people that our wonderful, hardworking European immigrants (our friends, my wife, the nurses and doctors who save my little boy’s life – good hardworking people who were happy here and be contributing, were the enemy. When in fact they were useful members of our society. We left the EU and now we have a worrying stream of unvetted, potentially criminal folks who don’t give a shit about society. It’s a hot potato – champagne socialists want to be to be outraged by any indicatiin of policy that pushes back but nothing to actually help. It’s very easy to convince a poorly educated person that immigrants are to blame for their shit, pointless lives. Worse – there’s no useful policy comms and not much of a plan. The country isn’t basically skint because of the immigration though. It’s skint because the tories awarded themselves huge amounts of government money during covid. We’re skint because Boris Johnson and Liz Truss were a disaster.
“The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe. For the axe was clever, and convinced the trees that because its handle was made of wood, he was one of them.”
It more than doubled! There were two and now there are five.
4% to 13%. How much of this is just ex-Tory voters hating the tories and going for the new right-wing party that isn’t the tories?
British Indians are often quite affluent so many of them vote for lower taxes & welfare.
I’m a British Indian, my parents were Hindus. I’m not religious, neither are my sisters. My siblings and I were born here.
My sisters and I would vote for Reform, and it is primarily based on our view that the immigrants are giving us British integrated and proud people a bad name. All brown people are being viewed as immigrants or Muslims. We want them out more than you do, my English friends.
Was this survey done before it after the ILR route cancellation policy came from Reform?
Polls are cringe.
Hands up – which one of you ever filled in a ‘poll’?
Yeah, ask the Latinos how that worked out in America.
