Election lost on the battlefield of culture wars?

I stated a while ago that I thought culture wars were sending the Tories down a cul de sac with ever diminishing returns.

People want answers to paying energy bills, putting food on the table & seeing a Dr etc. Not culture wars.

The local elections to this point, far from showing me this is wrong, have only fortified my thoughts on this.

But I think there is more to it than that.

A lot of people are looking at the Tories and seriously wondering what they have to offer if they were to get another five years.

You look at the front and back benches which are devoid of any heavyweight politicians. There are some more competent than others but overall they are extremists and ideologues. 

Even Sunak comes across as an over promoted school prefect.

They have no policies, solutions or ideas that will solve the current problems. The policies they do offer are only performative. Designed to create division and distraction rather than solve the issues they are supposed to address.

People have rumbled this and do not want another five years of destruction and decay.
