Attitudes of British Muslims
The vast majority of Muslims living in Britain feel strongly that they belong to Britain, feel part of British society and believe that Muslims make a valuable contribution to British society, according to new research conducted by MORI for The Sun. The poll, conducted on 21-22 July, examined Muslims' attitudes to being British and their reactions to the recent bombings in London. By a margin of two to one, Muslims approve of the way Tony Blair is handling the response to the 7th July terrorist attacks (46% approve 24% disapprove), but a majority believe that "the war in Iraq is the main reason why London was bombed" (53%). In contrast, just 14% say that "the war in Iraq had nothing to do with why London was bombed".

MORI Political Monitor June 2005
Net satisfaction with the way Tony Blair is doing his job as Prime Minister is at the highest since April 2003. His net satisfaction rating among the public is at -13% (39% satisfied, 53% dissatisfied). Among Labour supporters, net satisfaction is higher than it has been in the last 3 years, in July 2002 (50%). Net satisfaction with Mr Howard as leader of the Conservative Party has followed the opposite pattern: satisfaction with the conservative leader amongst the public peaked as the election neared (-10 net satisfaction in March), but is now back up to -26 net satisfaction, where he was at the end of 2004. Amongst Conservative supporters, these swings are even more pronounced. From a net satisfaction rating of +33 in March this year, support for Mr Howard among Conservative voters has dropped to +2. That is, 42% of Conservative supporters are dissatisfied with Mr Howard as leader of the Conservative party (44% satisfied).
