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

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.
🗣️ 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.

Why has Westminster failed to tackle spatial inequality?
Hyper-active incrementalism: policy is short-term, under-evaluated, reactive, fragmented, incramental, & top-down.
