As a general rule, any conservative politics that does not propose and enact policies to conserve its working & middle classes - especially in a time of crisis or pandemic - deserves that no effort be made for its own conservation by the electors.

There is significant demographic 40s & younger that has never known a sustained good economic period - prime earning years wiped out by the GFC, QE & now the Pandemic. People who are in debt & whose work is insecure & wages stagnant do not care about your kraken idiocy etc.

Again (for those stuck in 1985): people who have nothing of their own to conserve do not become conservatives. Unless & until conservatives do more to ensure more have homes & assets, do not be surprised when what excites affluent weird Boomers online loses real world elections

Finally, a political system that can speedily find money to bailout and recapitalise insolvent financial institutions (where none of the fraudsters go to prison) but refuses to help struggling families in a pandemic, deserves, thoroughly, what retribution is coming its way. Finis
