Low c conservative, not too fond of new technologies or rapid change.

Also classic upper l Liberal tendency towards freedom from tracking, Id cards etc.

In terms of money, limiting cash affects small businesses whose owners tend to vote conservative.

In recent years the Tory party has a larger share of "working people" lower middle class, who also prefer cash, (cash in hand etc) but who won't read the Telegraph.

Basically it's about their voter base.

For me, I tend to use cash often for small things from smaller places but in larger amounts for street taxis (good, fast and very easy to get), for street / box charity and church service donations.
