<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
New polling suggests that 35 per cent of Britons say they would find it difficult to be in a relationship with a Reform UK supporter. <\/p>\n
Polling by Ipsos put that number at 37 per cent for Labour and 36 per cent for The Green Party. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The polling of 2,160 British adults aged between 18-75 found Britons are more likely to say they would find it easy being in a relationship with a Labour or Greens supporter. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, 52 per cent of Liberal Democrat voters would find it difficult to have a romantic relationship with a supporter of Reform UK, compared to 51 per cent for Labour voters. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Overall, 42 per cent think a potential romantic partner\u2019s political views are important for a relationship.<\/p>\n
Senior Researcher at Ipsos Holly Day said: “As a rule, Brits tend to want a romantic partner that is caring, funny, and smells nice who they have things in common with. <\/p>\n
“Political views are generally not the most important factor people keep in mind when they are looking for love, though four in ten do think political views are at least somewhat important in a partner, rising to half or more among younger cohorts, remainers, and graduates. <\/p>\n
“Meanwhile, around half of Labour and Lib Dem voters say they would find it difficult to be in a romantic relationship with a supporter for Reform UK. So the data shows that politics and romance don\u2019t always mix.”<\/p>\n

The polling asked 2024 voters of all the main political parties what specific attributes they prioritised in a partner.<\/p>\n
Conservative voters are more likely than average to say family background was important, while Labour voters are more likely than average to say a potential partner’s political views are important.<\/p>\n
For Liberal Democrat voters, having things in common with a potential partner was more important, with supporters of Sir Ed Davey’s party less likely to prioritise family background. <\/p>\n
Reform UK voters were more likely to prioritise looks and less likely to prioritise job\/financial circumstances, family background or intelligence.<\/p>\n
Regardless of political affiliation, hygiene, being caring, having a good sense of humour and things in common rank at the top of the list for voters of all parties. <\/p>\n
