"Agree with their policies" - 5%.
That is astonishing. Just utterly incredible.
We asked Labour voters to tell us in their own words the main reason they are backing the party. For the largest number by far the key motivation is ousting the Conservatives
Top 5 reasons
Get the Tories out: 48%
Country needs a change: 13%
Agree with their policies: 5%
To improve NHS: 4%
Best-liked party with a change of winning: 4%
