Did you knock this together yourself, or is there some generator page somewhere?

I think you're being quite optimistic about when the farce will be ending its run.

Can I just clarify my voting since people have asked? I left the Tory party specifically because of Thatcher and Thatcherism. Since then I've not voted Conservative and have increasingly become dissatisfied with them and their politics.

That doesn't really address the point. You are blaming people for voting "wrongly", arguing that their voting indicates their support for austerity*. But how were they supposed to vote to not support austerity?
When you were a member of the Tories were you a member because you explicitly supported the massive transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich? Or because you felt that in some way the Tories were a better option for the UK?

*not a term I favour as it tries to make a distinction of politics post-2008 from those that went before when rather the same politics has been applied since the mid-70s, but that's an aside.
