^ This. I've never quite understood this absolute tribalism thing. There are many on all sides who take it as a personal insult if you point out that their pet party / favourite politico might have done something you disagree with or could have done / be doing something better (and then you get labelled the opposite and shouted down, regardless of your actual persuasion). Is something less wrong because the person what done it is on 'your team'? #mustbedoingitwrong

Sat with a friend tonight who blindly refused to accept Boris was in the wrong. "Iran, not Boris, is in the wrong here. My boy Boris? Nope."
Under the radar Tory - passionate, party committed, mid 30s. Shame really as a sound fellow and good friend, unless news is raised. Then it's shutters down, true blue.
There's talk about the party supporters ageing and becoming redundant, but it's undoubtedly true that there's a hell of a lot of people out there who quietly support the party through thick or thin "as long as it keeps the reds out, that's the main thing"
