Yes, and! From me on that.* There are a lot of perhaps temporary voters who swung away from Labour as part of the hangover from the Covid times. But there's also a large voting block made up predominantly of white, male, historically middle-class folks who have also swung right.

When i've engaged with them they tend to be rabidly anti-green; quite chauvinist and have a simmering racist resentment as they experience their once privileged position being eroded away. They work fairly hard, but due to high house prices and cost of goods in general are finding that they can't get ahead in life like their parents did.

They have legitimate complaints but as is often the case are easily led to blaming the folks suffering even worse than they for their problems rather than the dominant agenda's since the 80s that are the real problem.

*For the most part anyway, a lot of my parents generation are old fashioned Nats mostly because I come from a farming background.
