That source allows you to see the results according to political affiliation. Pluralities of supporters of the Conservatives, Labour, and Lib Dems think that supporting Ukraine is more important.
The exception is Reform UK, whose supporters think that good relations with the USA are more important than supporting Ukraine.
If it were an option, then it might be better to selfishly keep good relations with the US. But Trump will always try to extract as much as possible, regardless of ‘good relations’. So the choice is really between helping Ukraine or not, knowing the US will be the same either way.
Or the UK could prioritise good relations with Europe instead, which the public seems to support (source for below image):
You say Europe but your chart says the EU. Let’s not conflate the two.
Fair point. Arguably the British public has a more negative view of the EU than Europe as a whole though. So if the British public wants to increase trade with the EU then they would probably be fine with increasing trade with Europe as a whole.
By the way I’m not including Russia when I say “Europe”. They don’t even consider themselves European - they consider themselves Eurasian.
In this case they are analogous though, really.
A valid point in general, but since this is from a uk trade perspective, there isn’t much in Europe but outside the EU. Norway, Switzerland and a few Balkan countries.
