Don't despair, Tories: look upon Reform and see your rightful and fitting legacy | Nesrine Malik

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : And it was the Conservatives who went out of their way to play down the presence of institutional racism, who launched culture war after culture war about nonsense such as the content of the BBC Proms, and embraced the politics of government by controversy and spectacle.
51% : The latest is a pledge to create an immigrant removals force modelled on US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
48% : That is quite the turnaround for Britain's "natural party of government".
47% : The pugnaciousness and jingoism that arose in the wake of Brexit normalised politics-by-separatism and a kind of permanent contempt for the people who didn't vote for you.
46% : I was convinced that the party that still won elections despite the chaos and instability of Brexit, not to mention the calamities of austerity, could get away with anything.
46% : The very thing that creates natural Tory voters, that increasing sense of having a stake in the status quo via home ownership, social mobility, increasing savings and assets, is gone.
44% : The energy that couldn't be spent defending the dead end of British capitalism had to be directed on such diversions as leaving the EU, the Rwanda deportation scheme and various panics about non-issues such as lefty "agitators taking a bulldozer to our history".
29% : She hates critical race theory.
