A more complex pressure‐group model is a more accurate explanation of Anglo‐Jewish political behaviour at the constituency level than any ethnic bloc vote thesis, the evidence for which does not exist. The alleged ethnic bias of Jews towards the Conservatives after 1970 is questionable when allowance is made for the socio‐economic profile. However, the postwar swing towards the Conservatives is accepted and complementary electoral behaviour, or growing conservatism, can also be seen in the USA and Australia. The religious/cultural factor in this trend is asserted in the context of surveys and historical data on Jews in other countries
