Liberal Democrats' membership drops despite electoral gains, while Greens and Reform UK grow.
尽管自由民主党领导人Ed Davey多年来取得了最佳的选举表现,但获得薪酬的党员人数从2020年的118,000人下降到2024年底的大约60,000人,尽管据报告,党员总数(包括自由登记的支持者)为83,174人。
Despite achieving their best electoral performance in years under leader Ed Davey, the Liberal Democrats have seen paid membership drop from 118,000 in 2020 to about 60,000 by late 2024, though total membership—including free registered supporters—was reported at 83,174.
即使该党领导基层参与,这一下降趋势依然持续,19%的成员报告直接与选民接触,高于任何其他主要政党。
The decline persists even as the party leads in grassroots engagement, with 19% of members reporting direct voter contact, more than any other major party.
与此同时,绿党的党员激增至90,000人,工党员下降37%至333,000人,英国改革党员提出近260,000人,反映出在对传统中间派政党的信任下降的同时,向民粹主义和左翼选择的转变更为广泛。
Meanwhile, the Green Party has surged to 90,000 members, Labour’s membership fell 37% to 333,000, and Reform UK claims nearly 260,000 members, reflecting broader shifts toward populist and far-left alternatives amid declining trust in traditional centrist parties.
