So why would people espouse thier values
People have been made more nasty. They weren’t particularly pleasant pre-2010, but since then we have had 7 years of relentless nastiness. Social conditions have been made worse, working terms and conditions diminished along with wage depression on a large scale.
Then introduce the scapegoats called the poor, the disabled, and the immigrants. Reinforce whose to blame via your friends in the press, and we end up here.
Then brexit and the further burning of the rights and protections of the population(this is what Brexit is really all about), and you end up with the low regulation, low tax economy the tories want. This equates to a low wage, reduced public services, and few employment rights and protections for ordinary folk.
The Tories really must be pissing themselves when the very people they have attacked over the last seven years vote for them in the next election, really says it all about the stupidity of these people.
Of course the undemocratic FPTP system helps considerably. And the absolutely p*ss poor opposition.
This feels like 1980’s again. Huge majority for the Tories, the Labour party in socialist irrelevance. But you have to look on the bright side, since people are trying to equate May with that other tory Prime minister, Brexit will be May’s “poll tax” moment.
