Electability: This Is What It Actually Means

Like I keep saying, the biggest myth in British politics is that conservatism is a tough sell. 

We keep getting told that the Tories have to throw any actual conservatism overboard to get elected. Actually, the truth is pretty much the opposite: the only reason sleazy cucks like Neil O'Brien ever get elected is that voters have the vain hope that they might actually support something conservative. 

For proof of all the above, consider the Labour Party's position on the Police And Crime Bill. Or, rather, consider their multiple positions on this bill. For a supposedly extreme piece of legislation, they sure do seem to be struggling to say what it is they don't like about it. 

Apparently, the bill is super awful! Terrible! The worst.... but they dare not say exactly how and why.

That's the deeper point. The cucks keep giving us these patronising lectures about how, y'know, you guys, they'd totally like to support some actual conservative policies but they worried about muh electability. 

Well, here's an actual conservative policy and the left dare not oppose it openly. Sounds like a vote winner to me! So, how about it cucks? 

The conservative base has spent years being told it had to suck up cringe conservatism as the price of winning elections, now it turns out that actual conservationism is a vote winner, these guys will totally be getting on board with it, right? 

...

No, I don't recommend holding your breath either!

At the last election I just wrote "None of these" on the ballot paper. It was the first time that I had ever spoiled the ballot. Since then my decision has been vindicated in spades. If people stop voting for them that might change things a bit although I wouldn't count on it.
