Young people are consciously idealistic and care about the world beyond themselves, whilst May’s Conservatives are driven by deep-seated selfishness and rampant personal ambition. That’s why they no longer connect

For those of us out here who recognise that we are more conservative than the Conservative Party today, but find ourselves unable to consider being any part of it, there is little pleasure provided by the process of watching the incumbent Prime Minister progressively destroying the seedbed of post-Brexit Britain and the opportunities set to follow beyond.

Nor is there any solace to be found observing Tory MPs flailing about under the misapprehension that the Conservative Party’s ills are all something that they can simply reach outside of themselves and the Party to fix.

On the face of it, each of the Policy areas that give life to May’s bastard child idea of governance look wholly separate and as if they can be picked up independently and solved quickly, without any further need to look within.

The reality is that they cant. And what the handling of Brexit has in common with just about everything that this walking-dead version of a once-great Political Party has touched and is bringing the kiss of political death to, is the intrinsic inability of all those who have become enslaved to the Party machine, to see any fault within themselves, their actions, their outlook or anything they do, in terms of the responsibility they hold for the position that the Conservative Party and this borrowed-time Government is now in.

The sad and most regrettable reality is that the Parliamentary Conservative Party is only waking up to issues that they perceive as putting their electability at risk.

One of those that has hit home hard with a significant jolt this week, is the statistical disconnect that the Party now has with younger people. One that has exploded with the force of a nuclear bomb under the malaise of Theresa May.

There have already been a number of articles written by high profile Conservative Politicians making big statements about how they will reengage the disenfranchised young. Or rather, members of the general public up to the age of 45.

But nobody within the Party is wrestling with the reasons that many younger people find it easy to connect with a Marxist like Jeremy Corbyn, yet cannot bring themselves to identify with the policies of some of the best Conservative Governments, let alone those under the stewardship of the EU’s stooge and failing Prime Minister Theresa May.

The cold hard reality that too many Conservatives continue to overlook is that young people, in the main part untouched by the realities of the world outside of school life and university, have an understandably upbeat view of socialist ideas and especially the language that pits the many who possess little, against what they perceive to be the greed and wealth of the fat and getting fatter few.

As the young become older and take on responsibilities of their own, the gloss of the communal one-for-all and all-for-one idealism is often replaced by a different reality.

The reality that as soon as money and material wealth become not only important in personal life, but are found to set the rules for it, that there is an increasingly more adult interpretation of how everything actually works. One where self-interest, even in its most subtle and innocuous forms, becomes the order of the day and that the machinations of government do and will have an impact on what we as individuals earn, take home, can enjoy, use to make us feel secure and safe – irrespective of what to the outside world we then might say.

Where the Tories have gone wrong, and perhaps terminally so, is to fall into the trap of believing that the whole of the world outside of Westminster and across the UK, in our Towns, Cities, Villages and Communities does, in the bigger part, reflect their own seemingly grown-up, but nonetheless sheltered and far-from-being-real-world way of interpreting life.

This dangerous and clouded view on the part of lawmakers doesn’t stop there.

For under successive Conservative-led governments, all sense of the once accepted convention between the Governing and the Governed to provide for all parts and motivations within our wider society have been lost.

With it has gone the recognition of responsibility to provide workable, considered and intuitive solutions to those who genuinely need help whatever might be their experience of life.

That convention has been cast aside without any thought for what it is to be young and seeing life from a very different perspective.

It was swept away in such a way that tells the young very clearly that politicians have not, will not and could never share their point of view.

Until such time as a Political Party of the right can not only communicate shared values with Young People, but is seen to develop AND implement policies which demonstrate that they also share love, compassion and a sense of non-financially dependent care for all, right of centre politics will not be taken seriously nor respected by Young People.

Young People have a valid point of view. They look at a malevolent Labour Movement under the Leadership of Corbyn and in comparison to what the Tories offer, find themselves happy to look beyond what those with a different experience of life see as potentially catastrophic flaws.
