Support for Reform UK among British Indians has tripled since the election, according to polling from a diaspora group that shows Nigel Farage's party is proving successful among some immigrants.

Research by the 1928 Institute, a group of Oxford academics who analyse the British Indian community, shows backing for Reform has jumped in the past year from 4% to 13%.

The findings, which are being released to coincide with Diwali, show support for Farage's party among Britain's largest minority ethnic community remains well below the national level.

But the increase since the election is far higher than the national average, showing that Reform is building momentum in communities where it has traditionally struggled.

The report said: "British Indian support for Reform is significantly lower than that of the general UK population. However, there is a strong upwards trend in support."
