We believe in devolved decision-making. Local communities are empowered to back a candidate that is pro-Palestine and pro-peace.
For now, we have included a list of all the constituencies where there is at least a 10% Muslim vote. We will add a full list of all constituencies closer to the election including an advisory name per seat (as fed back to us by local groups).

*Scottish seats to follow.
**In each Muslim-dense seat we work with the local civil society organisations to (a) unite them; and (b) ask them to feedback to us who their choice is. The choice may or may not always be our first choice but we are grassroots-led and back out local communities
N.B. All the above data is mapped to the new constituency boundaries.
1. Dewsbury and Batley is a new seat. The former seat of Batley and Spen is held by Kim Leadbeater. She abstained on the ceasefire vote. Her 2019 majority is 323.
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.
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.
Our supporting organisations enjoy the support of millions of Muslims all over the country. We are a collective of the grassroots.
Our technology partners are from our community and have helped build websites that handle hundreds of millions of pounds every year and tens of millions of visitors every month.
No, we are a loose collective. Our principal aims are to educate and mobilise at the grassroots.
We have extensive data; we can provide local campaigns and we're very happy to help. But none of this happens if people like you do not join and volunteer.
