    It's a shame that people like Iain and Rory don't stand a chance in the current Conservative Party. They are exactly the kind of moderate thinkers that the party needs to recover itself and bring some order back to the chaos that Cameron, Johnson and the rest of them have created in the last decade.

    What Rory THINKS Conservativism is all about, is the blatantly demonstrable polar opposite of what it actually IS all about. So he's either extraordinarily naïve, or lying.

      No he's just been left behind on the desperate march to the right. That's why Labour is hoovering them up. Dragging stuff back to the centre(ish). It isn't just the working class who feel politically homeless with this govt. Labour are playing a smart game. I hope.

    • @BF-up5xw
      @BF-up5xw 4 дня назад +6

      I think he was speaking of conservatism and not the Conservative party. One Nation Conservatism does have a presence in the Conservative party; but I don't know how much currently. The conservative tradition of politics is way more broad and diverse than any particular party over any narrow span of time. I don't know enough about him; but my guess would be that Stewart is not a liar and is more concerned with running things (countries, charities, whatever) than he is with electioneering. So, maybe naive about some things? Or maybe just not as cynical as some folks; myself probably included.
