The Conservative Party being destroyed option shows you how many Tory members are really Brexit Party supporters.

I wondered that from that mental graph yesterday - it suggests that the party is wildly out of touch with it's members (like Labour I guess) and that can't have just happened through time with its long serving members.

Is there any evidence of entryism of the Tory party I wonder. I guess you can't tell easily tell without published numbers..

Yes, Cameron's desperate (but typically lazy) move to appease UKIP voters does seem to have backfired spectacularly, both in terms of retaining a sizeable group of extreme anti-EU members within the party, and also, of course, in deciding to go ahead with the referendum in the first place. The Tory party is pretty fucked.

And they know it. The nerves were palpable from the candidates last night when discussing a general election, and they were all so determined to make noises of unity. They know they're on shaky ground and are trying to make a show of stability.
