Labour voters more radical than left rivals’ supporters
LABOUR voters are more radically minded than supporters of rival left-wing parties, according to polling released yesterday by the London School of Economics.
A YouGov survey of members and supporters of Britain’s six biggest parties put Labour slightly to the left of the Greens based on “objective” measures.
On a scale where 0 represents the left and 10 the right, Labour was placed at 1.60 compared to the Greens on 1.65 and the Scottish National Party (SNP) on 1.86.
