People are quite selfish.....
Yes they often are, and yes they vote for their self-interest in the privacy of the polling booth. But most of them? I hope not. I'd like to think most Tory voters are more deluded than wicked (and many are poor, remember) and fall for the endless fiction that Conservatism creates a bigger pie so the poor get less poor that way. Of course, the first half of that is true and then the shits DON'T cut the bigger pie fairly. In my pretty long life I've seen that tragedy play over and over.
