For SO long Labour strategy has been chasing Cons and now Reform to the right on immigration. This is wrong (morally). Its also stupid (electorally) see the brilliant @profjanegreen.bsky.social. 'Frustrated' Reform voters? They aren't voting Labour box any time soon.

My point? Racial prejudice is real, and not particularly rare in the UK. Some people support 'racist' and 'immoral' policies because they are in sympathy with them. Does that mean all Reform supporters are racially prejudiced? Of course not.

European Social Survey Data from 2014: 18% of UK respondents said that they believed 'some races are born less intelligent'. Propensity to believe this, and to self describe as 'very' or 'somewhat' racially prejudiced was correlated with more right-wing political affiliation.

In 2017 I co-authored a short paper on racial prejudice in Britain. What did we say? Well for over 30 years, a significant cohort of the British public (never less than 25%) had described themselves as 'very' or 'somewhat' racially prejudiced. Likely an under count for the obvious reasons.
