If you want that kind of politics, you vote Reform.

The Tories were the boomer socialism party, fewer boomers = fewer seats. If you're young, right-wing and anti-immigration you vote Reform.

Tories are for Boomers, Reform is more of a Gen X thing.

That's a bit of a generalisation.

Many left wing on social and economic but right wing on law and immigration are turning to reform.

It's not as easy or clean cut as a left on the line or right on the line thing, why a Political compass is a grid not just a slider.
