Poll: Corbyn’s most loyal supporters are more likely to be anti-Semitic than those of other party leaders

The poll by YouGov asked respondents their opinion of British political leaders and gave them a series of statements about Jews to agree or disagree with.

Of those who said they ‘strongly like’ the Labour leader, 35 per cent agreed with four or more statements deemed anti-Semitic. 58 per cent agreed with two or more of anti-Jewish views.

Respondents who supported other leaders, such as Jo Swinson, Boris Johnson, and Nigel Farage, showed a markedly lower rate of anti-Semitic sympathy at just 18 per cent, 21 per cent and 24 per cent respectively.
