After the current term is over, it’s unlikely Tories are going to wield political power for a while.

I'm not so sure, there are more "shy" conservatives than people realise. Moving towards the centre will stabilise the party, and if they do loose the next election there is an inherent culling of the current crop of right wind MPs.

The likely hood is that, if Labour win, they will be faced with such a mess that they will struggle to make the necessary improvements. The conservatives, will move towards the centre, and with the right leader could regain power after a single term out.

The left is fragmented (party wise), the right is not. Labour will always have an uphill battle unless we have electoral reform.

Who’s up next - Labour?
What a shit choice you have, even the monster-raving-loony-party couldnt have created the circus that exists at the moment.
by default. But, if they don't screw things up they have a chance of being in power for 20 years... we will see.
