New analysis indicates Labour's traditional support base is shifting, with higher earners more likely to vote for the party than ever before, while poorer voters are flocking to the Reform party. This shift poses serious challenges for Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, who faced backlash over proposed welfare cuts targeted at the poorest citizens. With a significant rebellion within Labour against these cuts, questions arise about Starmer's leadership and the party's future standing in UK politics as it risks alienating its working-class roots.
Labour is now seen as the party of the wealthy, with a shift in voter demographics showing that those earning over £70,000 are more likely to support it.
Sir Keir Starmer's attempt to cut benefits for low-income voters has backfired, leading to a rebellion from over 120 Labour MPs and raising questions about his leadership.
