Not really that much different than OP’s reasoning for why she can’t be classist, which is what this REALLY is about.
”I’m voting Tory because I’ve got kids in private education, I don’t want it taxed, I don’t want illegal immigration… but, but I’m from a rough council estate…” So what, OP? Writing’s the same on the wall everywhere, at council estates too, where everything is worse because of Tories.
Illegal immigration rose exponentially under the Tories. The only justification can be that you like the way the Tories TALK about dealing with illegal immigration - gathering up people as if they’re animals, swooping onto them and arresting them when they attend LEGAL appointments, and then planning to keep them imprisoned until they can ship them to Rwanda?!?! An incredibly unsafe place with less freedom?
The Tories said, “STOP THE SMALL BOATS!” And talked about nothing but small boats and the small boats still came and more than ever.
If you ACTUALLY cared about that, you’d want to give Labour’s idea of targeting people smugglers instead of people smuggled a try. Criminals instead of victims.
And I’m not touching that gender identity bit with a ten-foot pole. As many have said before, and they’re all correct, the only reason the Tories want to clarify what a woman is, is so they can make sure they fuck them over too. And if you think I’m wrong, vote the Tories in again and see. Or you could just ask every woman who died in the last few years as a result of a failing NHS… but you can’t.
So… you’re voting Tory because you don’t want to (maybe) pay an extra wealth tax that applies to you and you think some poor people should be sent to a country where they’ll be much, much worse off. I’m NOT saying you’re classist, but… hopefully you have some poor friends so you can make the argument in the quote above.
