Forgive me, but your skirting around the question. You say that people are not being duped, but instead are having their imaginations captured. Despite the perceived differences in those scenarios you seem to be suggesting you and others are clever enough to see through the Tories but others aren’t. Why aren’t other people just like you looking at what the parties are offering and just making different choices to you?I am not in the habit of describing people I disagree with as duped (or thick or racist for that matter) so please give up trying to pin that on me.
The answer to your question is that Tories have successfully captured the imagination of "ordinary" voters (am I not ordinary btw?) and Labour haven't.
That is the situation at the moment and is the result of a very specific set of unusual circumstances. Crowing about it may prove premature...
