It's weird, a lot of tory voters just don't think Tory policies are all that harmful - my parents are included in that, I'm afraid. Extremely caring people, who just happen to have an oddly unchanging political stance no matter what the politicians actually do, or their real world experience of how policies work - my sister nearly meeting her maker due to understaffing in hospital after giving birth, for example.
For many, the status quo is preferable - no matter how bad it may be - to trying something new and riskier but fairer.
