That said, it's problematic for someone who is so rabidly anti left wing that the only two right wing parties are both populist shambles, and that the Tories can't even find someone with Farage's skill for selling right-wing populism to lead them. (The only one who might have had the 'charisma', Boris Johnson, had the misfortune of actually being Prime Minister and completely screwing up everything he had to do.)
I have said it before, and I shall continue to repeat myself, the absolute downfall of the Tories was Brexit (oh the irony of a Referendum decision taken to unite the party!). It was the Johnson (or rather Cummings) decision to purge the party of sensible centre right MP's like Grieve, Gauke, Stewart etc. that created the vacuum to be eventually filled with the astonishingly stupid and vacuous likes of Badenoch, Philp, Jenrick and so on. Each of whom seem to have decided that the populist route is the only viable path for the so called Tory party in its current form.
In my personal opinion, Tory voters who actually do not fully believe in this stuff but continue to support the party just purely to oppose the left, whilst seeking no sensible change from within their party, are just as culpable as the politicians they support.
