ObjectiveImmigration and the economy were the most salient issues in British politics at the 2010 general election, yet the relationship between them remains unclear. This article questions whether perception of the economic situation influenced hostility to immigration to Britain during the 2010 general election campaign.MethodThis article employs a logistic regression model using the 2010 British Election Study to test the effect of economic perception and other previously identified factors on hostility to immigration.ResultsThe results show that perception of the economy did have an effect on hostility to immigration at the 2010 British general election. However, the effect is negligible.ConclusionThe findings highlight the influence of other factors in predicting hostility to immigration, particularly identity and culture, party identification, and policy‐based factors. The prominence of analyzing the effect of economic concerns in determining attitudes to immigration appears misplaced.
