Butler & Stokes (1969) suggested that working class support for the Labour Party arose from:

socialization into working class families and communities
rational calculation of self-interest
issue-based concerns about culture and lifestyle
false consciousness and the acceptance of hegemonic values
socialization into working class families and communities  In a survey of political attitudes in the 1960s, Butler & Stoke found a high level of support for the Labour Party amongst their working class respondents. They argued that this was not a reflection of individuals making rational choices about their individual interests, changing cultural values and lifestyles, or false consciousness, but rather the way in which working class people were socialized into the values of the Labour Party through their families and communities. 827
