  9. The only thing that is actually “new” in Tory politics of late is this active, open hostility senior ministers express toward giant cross sections of society. That scares people. When did it become okay to actively attack voters from the dispatch box, with open anger and a list of epithets? That, combined with all of the now exposed graft and policy failures, is genuinely frightening the voters! And they wonder why they’re losing voters? That stuff may work well in America, from where the Tories have been importing all of their most recent ideas. But deliberate attempts to divide the population, with attacks on its most concerned citizens, are actively forcing voters to seek a sane alternative. Imagine if you went to your GP and said, “I’ve sought a second opinion and two other doctors have confirmed that you took out my appendix when there was no need and I just had a stomach bug,” and that doctor responds by saying, “That’s just rubbish coming from your “woke” agenda and your anti-medical attitude, so get the f*ck out of my practice and take your communist, freedom hating, Guardian reading bollox with you before I have those removed too!” . . . 😧. . . 🤷‍♂️ . . . 😵‍💫 . . . 🤦‍♂️ It’s a result of lazy, default thinking, that young educated people are being, “indoctrinated into wokeness,” because of a Tory refusal to accept logical arguments and desire to stick to talking points. When your default setting is to defend the indefensible, you find yourself not just at odds with the most outspoken educated people, but actively hostile towards a significant section of the population at any given time. And people don’t want insanely hostile leaders who are incapable of agreeing to disagree, let alone actively and outspokenly seeking to do HARM to sections of society!
