That's why I stay as far away as I can from politics of any kind.
But you're right, we should shift away from the topic towards something else...
I know exactly what you mean. Don’t feel like it’s just in the UK, though... I’ve been feeling very similarly: like I just want to pack up and move to... some less politically-charged country. That theoretically exists... somewhere.
Human beings are still human beings deserving of kindness and civility, no matter what side of the aisle they’re on. Also, blanket stereotypes don’t help anyone. You don’t suddenly know everything there is to know about a complex human being because you know who they voted for. I’ve had to learn that due to the aforementioned divisions amongst my family and friends. It is possible to disagree about politics, and still love and value one another.

Someone that supports the fundamentals of a political party that are harmful to others do not deserve respect and kindness. I've cut people, family, "friends" out of my life because of what and who they support. I'm sorry you're having a hard time with it, but it isn't like someone saying the don't like the color yellow or something. These are things that effect people and society as a whole. It is 100% okay to be angry and unkind about it.edit: Related; my trivial complaint for today are conspiracy theorists
I’ve been watching tv for about 45 minutes and the channel I’m watching is airing the exact same 3 commercials every commercial break.
