UK Labour Party to improve outreach efforts to British Indians: Report

Indian-origin people remain both the largest Asian ethnic group and largest non-white ethnic group in the UK and constitute 3.1 per cent of the population at 1.8 million, according to the 2021 UK census. There is growing evidence that Labour has lost the support of people of Indian descent. In 2010, 61 per cent of British Indians said they supported Labour, but a survey shows by 2019 that figure had dropped to just 30 per cent.
