Brits back Harris, fear Trump’s isolationism

Most people in Britain prefer US Democratic presidential candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris over Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump over a range of concerns including climate change, the war in Ukraine, and isolationism, Anadolu reports.

According to a YouGov survey conducted in October, two-thirds of the British public support Harris, with only one in six hope for a second Trump term.

The survey suggested that Britons’ preference for Harris over Trump is “clear” across nearly all segments of society.

Steve Rouse, a 66-year-old pro-European campaigner, said “Kamala all the way.”

Speaking to Anadolu, Rouse criticised US climate policy under Trump’s 2016-2020 presidency, when over 100 climate action laws were reversed and Washington withdrew from the Paris Agreement.
