Do you ever think that when a Tory watches A Christmas Carol....

No, neither do I.

I think they switch over to it’s a wonderful life’ and pay homage to ‘potter’ the nasty character aspiring to own everything and keep everyone down….working hard for not very much….
Tories are cnuts.
 
Nope, they will still be left knowing the price of everything, and the value of nothing.

Probably all too busy dreaming about the upcoming inheritance tax changes. Even the thick Sun reader ones who have feck all to pass on.
 
They view it somewhat differently to the rest of us plebs.
In Conservative world, it‘s actually a great tragedy where Scrooge starts out as a hero that they can all aspire to be, and through the course of the film he get’s corrupted and softened by evil leftists to the extent that he is transformed into a weak and feeble man who stupidly values decency and kindness over personal wealth gained through manipulating a desperate work force. It is one of the most famous tearful endings in the Conservative cinematic catalogue, as many Tories find themselves full of sadness, woe and even fear at how Scrooge fails.
I believe annual viewing is compulsory and even part of the curriculum at Eton, Charterhouse and Harrow, where it is shown to young boys in order to highlight the dangers of falling victim to evil progressive Lefty Wokeism and betraying their ‘born to rule’ mantra.

Post of the year this ❤️
 
Scrooge at the start of the film is a Tory idol, a god if you will.

They like to take it one step further though, instead of not celebrating Christmas and just being an all round miserable b***r to children the tories like to starve them and slash any welfare/care fund.

They also like to kill our elderly.
 
Honestly I don't think many tories will see themselves or modern life in it. Their takeaway will probably be that folk shouldn't grumble about having it bad now as they're not as hard up as people were in Dicken's era.
 
The other thing is most people aren't as cartoonishly bad as a character like Scrooge at the start of the story. They'll maybe vote tory and hate immigrants and begrudge their neighbours that are out of work, but then they'll donate a bit of money to an animal charity or a local church or something like that, so easy to convince themselves they're actually good.
