10月24日付のガーディアン紙(電子版)が報じた世論調査結果によると、
In a sign that public opinion is hardening against Britain's military presence in Iraq, 61% of voters say they want British troops to leave this year, even if they have not completed their mission and Washington wants them to stay.
イラクでの任務遂行の有無にかかわらず、また米国政府の意向にかかわらず、年内イラク撤退を望む声が61%を占めた。
また
Only 30% now back the prime minister's commitment to keep troops in Iraq as long as is considered necessary.
必要とされる限りイラク駐留を続けるというブレア政権の方針を支持する声は30%にとどまっている。
そのほか年内撤退支持の内訳は
Almost half of those questioned - 45% - want British forces pulled out immediately and a further 16% want them to leave by the end of the year, whether or not the US asks the British government to keep them on.
ワシントンの意向に関わりなく、即時撤退を望む声は回答者のほぼ半数の45%、年末までの撤退を望のは16%である。
前回調査と比較すると
When the Guardian last questioned voters on the issue in September 2005, 51% backed troop withdrawal with 41% arguing that British forces should stay in Iraq until the security situation in the country had improved.
2005年の前回調査では軍の撤退を支持する者51%に対して、イラクの治安状態の改善まで駐留を支持する者が41%だった。
