2. The Tory general election campaign....

...was based on stifling debate, not enabling it! Theresa May also spent the general election doing very stage managed events for very carefully selected Tory activists. She actively ran away from anything difficult such as debate.

And the Tory campaign wasn't just over centralised, it also focused far too heavily on Theresa May as a person. Which is awkward as she did not come over very well in that regard in the slightest.

The whole charade backfired on the Tories, and their own blunders have served to undermine much of their arguments against Jeremy Corbyn in the process.

Strong and stable my arse!
