Almost half of Britons want Israeli immigration cut or stopped altogether, poll finds
The survey found 29% would accept more or current Israeli immigration, while 22% of Britons said they did not know.
- A YouGov survey conducted June 8-9 found 47% of Britons want fewer or no migrants from Israel, placing the country among the least welcome nationalities in the poll of 22 nations.
- Russia recorded the highest combined opposition to immigration at 58%, followed by Pakistan at 52% and Nigeria at 48%, demonstrating Israel ranks among the lowest-ranked nations in the survey.
- Political divisions emerged sharply, with Reform UK and Green voters showing the highest negative views at roughly 52-53%, while Conservative voters registered 45% opposition and Liberal Democrats 41%.
- Pollsters suggest the shift partly reflects consequences of the Gaza war and Israel's international image, though the survey did not explicitly ask respondents whether the war drove their specific migration views.
- This result represents an 8-point increase in opposition to Israeli immigration compared to 2016, contrasting sharply with attitudes toward Polish immigration which fell from 42% in 2016 to 26% today.
