YouGov Anti-semitism Barometer 2019 out – “Jeremy Corbyn…particularly popular among people with antisemitic views”

From the Executive Summary:

"This is the first survey to show that antisemitic views are most widespread on the far-left. Among the very left-wing, 42% believe that Israel’s supporters are damaging British democracy, and 60% believe that Israel treats the Palestinians like the Nazis treated the Jews, which directly evokes one of the examples of antisemitism in the International Definition of Antisemitism adopted by the British Government.

"With regard to specific political leaders, the leader of the Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, was particularly popular among people with antisemitic views. 67% of British adults who strongly like Mr Corbyn hold at least one antisemitic view and 33% hold four or more antisemitic views. This surpasses the figures for any other party leader."

Given how often people who've argued to me that Labour's AS problem is overblown and cited previous YouGov AS barometer stats to back up their claims (so presumably they consider it a reliable source) – I wonder how many now will acknowledge the problem is greater than they might have been willing to admit?
