'Conservative' is a relative term... people like Magnetic say "grrr, you're not a real conservative" etc etc... but for example you have to consider the term MORE fiscally conservative, as opposed to being fiscally conservative.
HOWEVER, the biggest problem, is that they, overall, are very supportive of action on climate change, same sex marriage and abortion rights and those things do effect their votes, unlike the Tories (the poster), who are financially secure enough to vote their whims sometimes, but overall are wealthy enough to not have to worry those perky equal rights and will vote purely on economic self-interest.
The other thing I've noticed among Millennials is that while there is more interest in economic restraint at the same time as being very socially liberal, they ARE more altruistic overall.
