A 'sect'? This is the only party (apart from Brexit) that is determined to deliver on the result of the referendum.
That word is more appropriate to describe Corbyn's Labour Party.

Thank you for correcting, but it wasn't clear in that article that he was an ex-MP, just that he was an ex-Tory MP.
Incidentally, your assumption that some of those who voted Conservative last time were oldies and have died off only to be replaced by younger socialist-minded people has received a bit of a knock.
According to newspaper reports, the age at which a voter was more likely to have voted Tory than Labour, is now 40, down from 47 at the 2017 election.
This is the finding of a MORI poll. As well as that, a YouGov poll has revealed that Labour has lost many young voters since the last election, most notably to the Green Party.
