Look at the measure for controlling price rises from utility companies. It was economic illiteracy, full marxism, when 'Red Ed' introduced it. May puts it in the Manifesto and it was listening to the concerns of hard-working people.
Or Stamp Duty from this Government. Corbynites outraged and calling it as boon to the middle-class when their own manifesto had the same policy this very year.
It's increasingly clear people don't believe in anything other than supporting their party. You could switch the manifestos around and some people would strongly argue for it just as passionately.

That is why I piped up, one party seems to be getting a completely free ride no matter what they do simply because they're not the opposition and I'm not saying they can't have an influence I'm saying generally they don't because all they want to do is tinker around the edges
