Many reasons have shaped immigration into the EU over the past decade. Since then, attitudes towards immigration have not only gained public attention but have also shaped political debate and discourse in recent regional, national, and EU elections. The global financial crisis of 2008 increased the importance of migration in the social welfare upheaval in most Member States. Anti-immigrant sentiment and rhetoric became part of the narrative of some political parties during the campaign, and media coverage catalysed these social attitudes. The study used the 2013 International Social Survey Project (ISSP) dataset of six countries (namely Belgium, Germany, Spain, France, the UK, and Portugal) to see if the political party vote might have affected the attitude toward immigrants. The study extends other previous studies and presents new evidence on an under-researched topic. Results show that the left party voters are more open toward immigrants than the right party voters and that the green party voters show the most positive attitudes towards immigrants.
在过去十年里，有许多因素影响着移民进入欧盟。从那时起，对移民的态度不仅受到公众关注，还在近期的地区、国家和欧盟选举中影响了政治辩论和话语。2008年的全球金融危机增加了移民在大多数成员国社会福利动荡中的重要性。在竞选期间，反移民情绪和言论成为一些政党叙事的一部分，媒体报道催化了这些社会态度。该研究使用了2013年国际社会调查项目（ISSP）六个国家（即比利时、德国、西班牙、法国、英国和葡萄牙）的数据集，以考察政党投票是否可能影响对移民的态度。该研究扩展了之前的其他研究，并提供了关于一个研究不足的主题的新证据。结果表明，左翼政党选民比右翼政党选民对移民更开放，而绿党选民对移民表现出最积极的态度。
