Numbers don't lie: Labour's African vote problem

58 min21 chapters

Show notes

Ahead of the 7 May local elections, we surveyed 123 African heritage voters across the UK. The findings confirmed some things we suspected, complicated a few assumptions, and threw up a few surprises.

In this episode, we walk through the data: the scale of Labour's collapse in this community, the Green surge driven not by new voters but by Labour leavers, and what it will take for any party to earn this vote.

It is one of the more important conversations we have had on the podcast. We hope you find it worth your time.
