If Jesus was a tory I am definitely not joining his gang
Your comment arrives with the assumption that you know the aims of the Church Worldwide (no one denomination) and the way they are asked to live in each era they may be serving the Lord. Do you? (If so explain what it is).

While Christians will wish to impact their communities for good where they live (or where they are sent), very few will take more than a passing interest in the ever changing world of politics, which is mainly caught up in secular values and interests that sadly now pay little attention to the way God says we should live.
Some (a minority) will be called into politics and will aim to bring Godly values into their work, impacting the sphere in which they are working, locally, nationally or internationally etc

On your last point, Jesus didn't get involved with the rulers of the day, He said 'Give to Caesar that which is Caesars, and to God that which belongs to God' - when He was brought before the rulers, He quoted the Scriptures, in other words He gave us the example of leaning on Godly wisdom, not human wisdom.
