High voter registration rates among students suggest their vote could play a significant part in next month’s general election, with more than half currently intent on voting Labour, according to a survey.

More than nine out of 10 participating students (93%) who were entitled to vote had registered and most said they planned to use their vote on 8 June, offering some hope to the Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn.

Corbyn’s leadership appears to have boosted student support for Labour, which is up from 23% in 2005 to 55% in 2017, but analysts say that may not translate into votes as many who are concerned about Brexit are considering voting tactically.

There is also a lack of trust on Labour’s earlier pledges to abolish tuition fees and bring back maintenance grants, with fewer than half of Labour-supporting students convinced their party would follow through on those promises.

Support for the Conservatives is low with Theresa May less popular among students than her predecessor David Cameron. Just one in six (18%) of those polled would vote Tory, while the Liberal Democrats, once the most popular party among students, enjoy just 12% support, the Greens 6%, the Scottish National party 3% and Ukip 2%. Men are more likely to be Tory supporters than women – 25% versus 13%.
