Patrick is one of many readers demonstrating a level of dissatisfaction with the Tories from the very people who voted Conservative in 2019:

“I voted Tory in 2019 for the first time for twenty years, solely because it was the only way to get any sort of Brexit.

“And despite the fact that all five candidates on the ballot paper were Remainers (what’s new..?) it won’t be happening again.”
