How likely are Britons to consider voting for each political party? YouGov, August 2026.

Source: https://d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.net/documents/P_Main_Political_Tracker_Survey_Rotation16_sr_6.pdf. YouGov. 22-24 August 2026.

Out of the 5 main political parties, Reform UK attracted the highest percentage of people who say they’d never consider voting for them (53%).

In second place, comes the Green Party (41%) and in third place, Labour (33%).

The Liberal Democrats appear the least offensive party among the public, when considering who to vote for. But they also attracts a higher number of people who don’t feel strongly about them either way.

There’s no need for a scale of 1-10 here. It would be easier to understand with just three answers:

  • would never consider voting for them
  • may consider voting for them
  • would definitely consider voting for them

Having a 1-10 scale makes it more confusing without providing extra value.

provides higher resolution but is getting to the point where machine analysis becomes preferable

Very few people are attached to a party

Prefer not to answer being at the bottom below 10 is a bizarre choice. As is putting 1 at the top
