The RAF is currently taking part in airstrikes against ISIS in Iraq. This was supported by Labour leader at the time, Ed Miliband, voted for by a majority of Labour MPs, and backed by LabourList readers – but Jeremy Corbyn voted against it.

A year on, and we asked our readers again whether they support the intervention. Now, 56% side with Corbyn and say they are opposed, while 38% said continue to support the involvement of British forces.

What about Syria? The Government could soon put the possibility of airstrikes against ISIS in Syria to a Commons vote and reports this week suggest they are optimistic that they’d get enough support among MPs to go ahead with action.

Jeremy Corbyn has repeatedly explained that he is opposed airstrikes in Syria but said this week that he is prepared for a debate within the Parliamentary Labour Party about this as a number of MPs – including Shadow Cabinet members – have indicated that they could be in favour of this form of military intervention in the region.

A majority of our readers agree with Labour’s new leader; 63% said they don’t support this plan, compared to 39% who do. Only 8% said they didn’t know.

However, those who took part in this week’s survey do not hold blanket opposition to deploying British forces abroad – 48% think that our armed forces should continue to be used overseas, while a significant 40% disagree.

2,453 people voted in this week’s survey. Thank you to everyone who took part.
