May relied HEAVILY on these sorts of phrases and was very lazy about fleshing them out with any explanation. She just repeated them over and over like a dodgy Buzz Lightyear, trying to create an association. "The Tories are strong and stable and we need that! They must be, they keep saying it over and over."
Basically, the less educated you are, the more susceptible you are to basic advertising. Flat out fact.

'They must be, they keep saying it over and over' which is exactly what I have been saying of Corbynites.
They outdo even May on that.
