REALLY THINKS

THE far-right’s destructive portrayal
of a divided and broken Britain is
today shattered by a massive poll
testing the mood of the nation.
In the biggest survey of its kind, the
core values of tolerance and open
mindness of Britons shine through.
The ‘Giga Poll’ of more than 45,300
people covering over 80 issues
provides hope that the country is
not in the grip of racial tensions.
Green entrepreneur Dale Vince
commissioned the research in a
bid to determine ‘what Britain really
thinks’ against a backdrop of farright rhetoric dominating the news
agenda.
He said: “Of course there
are concerns over the levels of
immigration, and those coming here
in small boats, but the British people
through this extensive polling show
their true colours – and those are
the British qualities of compassion,
decency, and tolerance.” The polling
undertaken by anti-fascist campaign
group HOPE not hate, and supported
by the TUC, provides a fascinating
snapshot of the views and attitudes
of Britons which will give Sir Keir
Starmer food for thought.
Labour trails Nigel Farage’s
Reform UK by six clear points in the
poll – and the public’s dissatisfaction
with the Government’s performance
is laid bare with two-thirds believing
their concerns and fears are not
being listened to.
Worryingly for Labour, there is
little optimism that they can turn
things around with four-in-ten people
believing their personal 昀椀nancial
situation will get worse over the
coming years, with a shocking
two-thirds of people at best feeling
they are getting by – and making
cutbacks – with at worst skipping
meals or missing rent payments.
