In Britain, women are more undecided than men about their vote choice. Why?

In our new @BritJPIR article, @RosieShorrocks and I find this is partly explained by gender gaps in:

i) political engagement
ii) perceptions of representation
iii) conflict

Our @The_JOP paper, now with page numbers!

Focusing on 🇫🇷we show that living in deprived neighborhoods depresses electoral registration. Yet, among the most discriminated ethnic minorities, living in proximity to coethnics boosts registration

🔓ICYMI - '‘Hyper-active incrementalism’ and the Westminster system of governance: Why spatial policy has failed over time' by @PatrickDiamond1,
@jacknewmanHE, @profdrichards, @AnnaKSanders & @AndyWWestwood is available now in #OpenAccess.

[Dr Ceri Fowler @cerifowler]

tl;dr : Men more likely to vote Reform; women more likely to vote Labour. BUT (!) much more variation on whether Labour have more support from women and by how much from poll to poll. Women are consistently less likely to support Reform - very few polls don't show this.

[UK in a Changing Europe @UKandEU]

🗣️ NEW BLOG: "Traditionally, women in the UK were more likely than men to vote Conservative, whilst men were more likely than women to vote Labour".

👉 But what will happen at the 2024 election?

✖️ @cerifowler and @AnnaKSanders unpick the data.

🆕New Paper with @PatrickDiamond1 @profdrichards @AnnaKSanders @AndyWWestwood

Why has Westminster failed to tackle spatial inequality?

Hyper-active incrementalism: policy is short-term, under-evaluated, reactive, fragmented, incramental, & top-down.

Really exciting being part of #BBCQT last night, which we hosted at @UniOfYork! Enjoyed chatting to BBC News’ @BBCRosAtkins and BBC Look North about what to expect from party leaders, and whether TV debates can influence voting intention
