5 years ago, Muslim Census started as an idea on a whiteboard. Since then, we’ve taken your voices from surveys ➡️ mainstream media ➡️ parliament ➡️ policy change. But the need has never been greater. We’re back.

Final point - This survey was also concluded on the 3rd of November, 13 days ago. It is fair to say a lot has changed over the past 2 weeks that may have caused shifts in sentiments.

One last thing important to highlight is this poll from Savanta came very much off the back of our own opinion poll. We published our work on the 26th, Savanta’s poll was launched immediately the day after. It is a significant step to get a leading polling company involved.

Savanta also acknowledge the shortfalls in their survey, one mainly being not having the reach across age and generation demographics. The importance for us to work harder and improve to represent Muslims only increases.

It leads to findings such as 67% of Muslims aged 18-24 saying they would vote Labour. This is something we find hard to believe is truly reflective of the population.

Looking into Savanta’s sample however, it is clear the sample are more politically engaged. Just 5% of those included in their graphic say they pay “no or little attention” to politics. Alarmingly, 43% (almost half) of the sample do not consider Palestine a top 5 issue.

According to @Survation in 2021, 72% of Muslims felt most aligned to Labour. @Savanta_UK point to a 28% drop in Labour’s Muslim vote.

What Savanta do not include in their overall figures are those that are undecided, and those intending not to vote. Including them, the Labour Party look to hold 44% of the Muslim vote according to this sample. Different to our findings, but still a significant fall in support.

We are pleased to see @Savanta_UK be pushed to look into the Muslim voting intentions following our work and recent events. Here’s a quick thread of takeaways from this poll 🧵

Before anything, Muslims should always aim to act in the best interests of the Ummah and humanity. We are putting together a detailed report to equip British Muslims with what they need to vote - to ensure, we continue acting in the best interests of the Ummah and humanity.

We plan to continue providing insights from our heatmap to share with you the seats the Muslim vote could potentially swing. However, are there any survey topics you’d like to see from us in the future?

It appears this screenshot is being shared. We can confirm to those “Labour Insiders” that Muslim Census is an entirely volunteer-led and self-funded organisation by British Muslims eager to provide insight to support the Muslim population of the UK.

However, it is important to mention that Sarah Owen has been vocal about the war crimes and ethnic cleansing.

Absolutely. Luton North’s MP is currently @SarahOwen_ . Labour had a margin of 9,247 votes in the previous election. If there were a swing in the Muslim vote similar to our survey, the Muslim vote alone can swing Luton North.

@MuslimCensus @wesstreeting I’m hoping that my understanding of your map shows a similar problem for Luton Norths @SarahOwen_ Let’s hope and pray this is the reality come election time #LabourSupportGenocide
