Exclusive: Party figure says it has work to do to retain support as poll shows drop in Starmer’s popularity
Labour has much work to do to retain support among Muslim voters, a senior party figure has said as a poll suggested the party had lost half of its Muslim voter base over its handling of the Israel-Gaza war.
Only 43% of British Muslims who backed Labour at the 2019 general election are willing to do so again at the next general election expected this year, the survey finds.
