A stunning new poll has revealed Nigel Farage's Reform UK is the most popular party among gay and bisexual men. This is according to pollster More in Common, which found Reform is not only the most popular party among straight men (33%) but gay and bisexual men too (25%). The same poll also found 29% of straight women also support Reform, making it the most popular party among females. The polling may shock the Left, but why should it? After all, gay men and women in general are often impacted greatly by uncontrolled immigration given the attitudes of many coming into borderless Britain.
Pollsters meanwhile are still showing Reform surging ahead. While the Greens have seen a post-Gorton by-election bounce, much like the Tory bounce seen after Kemi Badenoch's response to Labour's woeful budget, this rise in support for Zack Polanski's seems to now be receding.
Electoral Calculus still has a Reform minority government as the most likely outcome at the next election, and that is only due to anti-Reform tactical voting, a serious risk for Farage by the way. A Reform majority government remains the second most likely result.
All eyes will now be on May's local elections, back on after Labor was forced to cancel postponing these voters following Reform's mounting legal challenges and growing popular pressure.
Whatever else, Reform is winning over a diverse range of voters (I'd wager that includes growing numbers of racial minorities, especially British South Asians). Sorry Sir Keir, but the turquoise tidal wave seems to be going nowhere.
