It is disingenuous of them now to try and claim some sort of moral superiority

Not really.
Especially when the Cons have positioned themselves even to being further away from the Lib Dems now too.
On Brexit for instance,miles apart now.

The Greens,Plaid Cymru and the SNP all anti Con policy.

Maybe the Cons need to look at and question why just about all other Parties find them so abhorrent to deal with or support.
Apart from the DUP that is.

The Cons are fortunate in this election only in that the DUP did a little better in N.Ireland and moreso that Sinn Féinn largely replaced the SDLP, who would have taken seats at Westminster had they got MPs elected.
