I don’t think we should make out Tories are ‘scum’ by default.
There are many who aren’t, and it is rather prejudiced. However, the current crop of Tory MPs contain all too many grifters, chancers, self-interested, grubby charlatans among them, and it’s not wrong to call out people with negative connotations if you have the evidence to back it up. I don’t think that I can possibly do the same for every Tory, politician or not, in such a broad brush way.
