I don't Britain is that ideological, maybe small-c conservative, and as long as you're somewhat on planet Earth then it's about your competence and what you'll do for them. It's not like the United States where people divide massively on some social issues like abortion or marriage. Even the role of the Government to provide services isn't really contested.

The Tories have screwed up the economy and the NHS. That's why they'll lose.

Their screw-ups is what has undone them, just too many.

They (everyone) knows they are going to lose, so they're now just hanging on.
The thought of Labour in charge does not exactly fill me with hope of anything better.

Still, at least its not Corbyn in charge of them now.
Pretty sure he was one reason so many people turned away from them last time.
