Re: Hartlepool - having seen one of the leaflets saying the government is only spending in Tory seats rather than Labour I can totally see why some forgotten brexit voters wanted to get a Tory in and get some of the cash.
For a Brexit voter, they've gone from feeling totally disenfranchised to being told by Farage that they can change things - and succeeding! Winning the brexit vote, then getting Boris in, they're taking back control as they see it. They just have to make sure they can hold the government to account.
