Jim I want you to do the same with the UK that I’ve done with the US. It will clarify this discussion. You’re better to do this because you know specifics about us better than me too.
Take 3 fields. Spending, immigration and social issues.
Take a look at how the UK was in 1995. Write down what was going on with all these 3 things.
Then compare to 2019.
Has there been a shift to the left in spending? Meaning, is there more money being spent now? How much more? Conserving money is a conservative position. This one is easy to figure out.
Immigration? What do the numbers look like in comparison to 1995? Are you opening the borders increasingly to become liberal with immigration or the numbers staying about the same or going the other way?
Social issues? How is lgbt treated compared to 1995. Did your country shift left or right since 1995.
This will give you perspective on your country’s shift during your life time.

This is demonstrably false.
