This highlights why an election is so shit.
If I'm a traditional small-c conservative business owner im/exporting to the EU who do I vote for?
If I'm an anti-capitalist who sees the EU as an imperialist endeavor to maintain the wealth of European elites at the expense of the workers RoW who do I vote for?
If I live in a heavily Jewish area with a pretty good Tory MP from a local perspective, where Labour are always 2nd, who do I tactically vote for?
(the last one is me)
The old divisions are (at least for now) secondary in importance to Leave/Remain - the core of which is basically our new politics.
Rory Stewart is closer to Corbyn than he is to Johnson, for e.g. in terms of observance of rule of law, preservation of human rights etc.
The antisemitism thing is a problem that cuts across this, however - I don't know what that does to the situation for voters.
