You have to remember we have FPTP voting, not STV or any other form of PR.
I'd have voted LibDem but you only get one vote and my main concern was "try to halt NHS privatisation" leaving me to vote against the Tories and so for whoever has most chance of winning against them.
There's no scope in General Elections for any nuance in voting.
LibDems openly supported this line, "vote against the Tory party".
Meanwhile in Scotland it seems SNP lost votes not because of their governance, per se, but because people were using it as a proxy for voting against a further Scottish referendum.
