The British electorate and Tory Stockholm Syndrome

Ok, so why are so many Labour voters wanting to vote for an incompetent and rather thick Tory leader?  

This week I listened to a staunch Labour voter saying she was going to vote Tory to get behind Theresa May against the EU and that Corbyn was a silly old idiot.

The EU negotiators couldn't care less how large the UK Tory majority is!  Why should they?  They're not in thrall of May, Murdoch or any other right wing media baron.

So, WTF, why have so many normally sensible voters decided to vote Tory after the Tories have hacked into benefits and thrown millions of families and their children into poverty?

Are UK voters inherently thick?

Additionally, Tory economic economic record is utterly shit.  Our economy is no more productive than in 2007, yet house prices have shot up.  A whole generation is being screwed over and will not have the funds to enter into the Tory dream 'home owning democracy' not only that, their pensions are worth the square root of sod all.  Do parents HATE their children and wish upon them to be bled dry?  Looks like it!
