Knife crime in sharp decline

Stop, stop, you’ll scare a conservative Londoner with language like that!

Be careful using the word “conservative” if you’re discussing UK politics - it’s literally the name of a (mainstream) political party.

I’d like to think that the person from feddit.uk knows that! I obviously don’t know you’re background either but FYI I’d say that this sentence does just refer to a generally conservative person. In the UK we don’t really refer to individuals by their party name directly like Republican/Democrat in the US etc. Someone who literally votes Conservative you might refer to as a tory, though there’s not really parallels to other political parties. Sorry if this not news to you!
