>>> Gay marriage: David Cameron introduced that, but more Conservative MPs voted against it than voted for it. It passed because of 90% of the Labour MPs supporting it And how does that contradict anything I said? Did Labour, with all that aparent gay marriage support, actually do it? No, they didn't. >>> Conservative party currently does not "support" the NHS, but would not dare move openly against it, that would cost far to many votes. That's like complaining companies only do things "for money". Well of course they do what the people want, that's what they're there for. >>> Rather they follow, the model of "defund, induce crisis, introduce a privatised solution" I would believe it if the NHS actually got less funds year over year. But they don't.

> And how does that contradict anything I said? But has the conservative party moved to the right after Cameron resigned? Cameron formed a coalition with a centrist Party (LibDems), but May courted the voters of one extreme right-wing party (UKIP) quite successfully and formed an alliance with another (DUP). And May's instincts, as pointed out in her actions above, are nowhere near as liberal as Cameron's.

  >>> But has the conservative party moved to the right after Cameron resigned? Yeah probably, I don't know. But I'm not gonna trivialise what far right means. >>> May courted the voters of one extreme right-wing party (UKIP) quite successfully. By being anti-Brexit? How exactly did she court UKIP voters? Labour gained more seats than the Conservatives lost, it's quite clear where UKIP voters went. You, as well as the polls, assumed UKIP voters are all right wing. You're wrong.
