Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : Many voters feel that their cultural identities and national traditions are under threat from multiculturalism and political correctness, allowing right-wing populists like Farage to leverage these sentiments by advocating a return to traditional values.
47% : In England, increased migration and demographic changes have led to societal tensions, enabling right-wing populist parties like Reform to focus on anti-immigration policies and emphasize security, sovereignty, and cultural homogeneity.
46% : Right-wing populists like Trump and Farage capitalise on these sentiments by promising to prioritise the nation-state and its traditional values.
21% : Musk has now said Farage 'doesn't have what it takes' to lead Reform but the tech tycoon is a mercurial figure, who supported Hillary Clinton and denounced Trump, so who knows which way he'll jump after his public falling out with Farage.
