Right; but "Tory" didn't used to mean "overtly racist" a couple of years ago.

you mean when they weren't in power? There was a reason even new labour was preferred over them since Thatcher.

No, it's more that. I disagreed with Tories about lots of things two years ago, but outright racism is new since UKIP.

I moved to UK in 2006 I've been following UKIP since then. That's 10 years and counting!

Right, but for most of that time they were a hideous joke, like the BNP and the NF. Not any more.

Tories struggling to accomodate UKIP-leaning voters have taken on their xenophobia and racism wholesale.

I don't actually disagree but I think they have been obviously heading this way for years

I don't think they have been ok and not overtly racist just more careful with it, still overt though just less power

It may have always been there under the surface; but surfacing it has had catrstrophic impact on public atmosphere.
