We are Pro-Democracy and Anti-Genocide
Muslims and all people who stand for justice agree that the current political class does not represent us. Peacefully, politically, and persistently we will vote them out.
OUR GOAL IS SIMPLE
This election signals a shift for Muslims – no more political apathy. We will no longer tolerate being taken for granted. We are a powerful, united force of 4 million acting in unison.
We are focused on seats where the Muslim vote can influence the outcome. We are here for the long term. In 2024, we will lay the foundations for our community’s political future.

Frequently asked questions
Are you backing any particular party?
No. We want the Muslim voice heard across the political spectrum - on issues like Palestine and much more. Beyond this, we look to create viable grassroots political infrastructure in our communities. We are open to engaging with all from all political persuasions who want to genuinely work with us.
Are you telling me who to vote for?
Our focus at The Muslim Vote is about working towards unity and coordination across our community. Importantly - that means respecting and empowering local communities.
In Muslim-heavy areas we are tapped into the local community leadership and local organisations. We let them decide who they want to back. We simply reflect that on our website once the consensus candidate is clear.
We personally may or may not even agree with the choice - but we will be true to our stated methodology: respect and report local decisions on our website.
Is this a political party?
No, we are a loose collective. Our principal aims are to educate and mobilise at the grassroots.
How do I know I can trust you?
Our supporting organisations enjoy the support of millions of Muslims all over the country. We are a collective of the grassroots.
What does success look like in 2024?
We are ambitious but realistic. 2024 is the first time the Muslim community is organising - and this alone is a big victory for future elections. Ultimately success is that the Muslim vote acts as one and emphatically supports those who backed the ceasefire and protests against those who did not.
What about if none of the MPs in my area support Palestine?
Our philosophy is really simple: if none of the candidates are pro-Palestine, pro-peace, then we need to work harder to convince them otherwise. Alternative parties typically will back these stances however, so in almost all seats you should be able to vote for at least someone. Contact us for training on how to lobby your local candidates.
Do you speak for all Muslims?
We are a very broad collective and so enjoy the support of a huge portion of the Muslim community. Do we speak for every last Muslim? No. Is there diversity of views within our collective? Yes. But one thing we are all united on is that the Muslim vote matters and it needs to be taken seriously by the UK’s political class.
Is this a religious campaign?
This is not a religious campaign - it is a political one.
We are not religious scholars - we are not here to sermonise. We are here to talk about civil rights and policies and give advisory guidance in a non-judgemental way to our audience.
If you want to disagree with our advisory guidance - that’s also cool. It doesn’t make you any less Muslim. We do however always encourage you to engage in the political process. Muslims must be engaged across the political spectrum - not absent from it.
Of course, all of us are inspired by our Islamic faith in being good citizens and standing up for our community (Muslim and non-Muslim), but the TMV is simply a campaign to effect political change on issues that affect Muslims. We seek broad support from all allies - of all persuasions.
Are there any local TMV branches?
In short, no.
We coordinate and network with a broad range of groups across the country. But each of these groups are their own thing - we have no control or influence over them.
What about other organisations or groups that are also called “Muslim vote”?
TMV has become a movement and it is inspiring others across the country to set things up. However we are not in any way affiliated any other organisation even if it is carrying the “Muslim vote” name.
We do not control them and are not connected to them.
Our approach to Imams, mosques, and religious figures who would like to get involved in our campaign
TMV officially has no Imams, mosques, or religious figures involved due to legal restrictions around religious leaders encouraging their congregation to vote for or against a particular candidate.
What we would encourage Imams, mosques, and religious leaders to do - which is safe and legal for them to do as well - is to encourage their congregations to register to vote.
