  • The General Election Breadline Battleground
    The General Election Breadline Battleground www.centreforsocialjustice.org.uk Contents Introduction 1 Identifying the breadline battleground – the challenge facing all political parties… 3 Overview: 3 Methodology - how we have created the breadline battleground: 4 What these voters think about the political parties: Do they really care? 4 What party will low-income voters vote for? 5 Do they care about me? 6 Appendix 1: 7 1a. The 100 Most Marginal Constituencies: 7 Appendix 2: Labour targets for a majority of 50 8 Most marginal constituencies – England 11 Most marginal constituencies – Wales 12 Most marginal constituencies – Scotland 13 Appendix 2: 14 Methodological statements on calculating the breadline battleground: 14 Appendix 3: 16 Survey results for low-income voters 16 Introduction In a recent survey of low-income voters commissioned by the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) almost 8 in 10 (78 per cent) voters living on the lowest incomes have never met or spoken to their local MP. Over half of these voters also told us they hadn’t heard from any of the parties in the last year, despite candidates gearing up for a general election campaign. It is probably not surprising that 60 per cent of these forgotten voters told us that “no political party really cares about helping people like me”. The coming general election needs to be about more than Brexit if it is going to address the issues that face low-income Britain. Whether you voted leave or remain in 2016, our analysis shows that any political party will struggle to win a working majority if they fail to connect with the poorest voters across Britain and demonstrate that tackling poverty is a top priority.
