Jews in London are far more likely to be voting for Labour next week than those who live outside the capital.

Whereas 53 per cent of London Jews said they intended to vote for Sir Keir Starmer’s party in the coming election, only 37 per cent of regional Jews did, according to the Institute for Jewish Policy Research, which sampled more than 2,700 members of the community last week.

While the Conservative Jewish vote share was 29 per cent in the capital, it was slightly higher at 31 per cent in the regions.

Nationally, 46 per cent of Jews said they preferred Labour, compared to 30 per cent for the Conservatives: 10 per cent, the Greens: 8 per cent, Liberal Democrats, 6 per cent Reform and 1 per cent for Plaid Cymru or the Scottish National Party.

The Liberal Democrats enjoyed more than double the proportion of support among regional Jews than those in London — 11 per cent compared to 5 per cent.

The Greens also did better among regional than London-dwelling Jews, with 12 per cent compared to 8 per cent; as did Reform, 7 per cent to five per cent; and nationalist parties, 2 per cent to none.

More than half the community, 53 per cent, live in the capital, according to the most recent Census in 2021.
