"Conservative environmentalists"?
Some months ago I did some data entry of a survey which amongst other things included questions on environmental issues (eg, to paraphrase only slightly, "do you think that climate change is the most important issue facing us / mildly interesting / a woke conspiracy") and voting intention.
The intersection between people who gave a shit about the environment and people who said they were going to vote Tory was exactly the empty set.
Perhaps because those environmentalists who *used* to vote Tory, if there were any, had already switched their intentions to Lib Dem by the time they filled in the survey?
Edit to add: this data from a constituency which was a Lib Dem gain from Tory last Thursday.
