Support for Reform UK increasing among British Indians, poll shows
The Guardian ^ | Oct 20 | The Guardian

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.

Research by the 1928 Institute, a group of Oxford academics who analyse the British Indian community, shows backing for Reform has jumped in the past year from 4% to 13%.

The findings, which are being released to coincide with Diwali, show support for Farage’s party among Britain’s largest minority ethnic community remains well below the national level. But the increase since the election is far higher than the national average, showing Reform is building momentum in communities where it has traditionally struggled.

The report said: “British Indian support for Reform is significantly lower than that of the general UK population. However, there is a strong upwards trend in support.”

“...Support for Reform UK among British Indians has tripled ...”

That’s because they see the UK turning into Calcutta. The exact reason they left that shithole. When you import third world, you become third world. It’s happening in EVERY Western country. Suicide by 3rd world immigration.

The UK faces a number of problems like most in the west (huge debts and spending) it doesn’t help previous governments have made it worse with Net Zero, international aid tied to GDP, mass migration etc. over the years

Some lunatic ideas implemented during more benign times.

Reform is well named because they’re offering much needed sanity I guess. This is why they top the polls........
