Participation by Catholics in the UK’s next General Election is likely to be particularly high, according to the Catholic Union of Great Britain.

A survey of the Catholic Union’s members and supporters found that just over 90 per cent of responders were planning to vote in the upcoming General Election.

The figure is significantly higher than the average turnout for national polls, showing the importance for Catholic voters of this next election. Average turnout for the past three General Elections stands at 67 percent nationally.
