''Redrawing constituency boundaries to lock Labour out of power for a decades is at the top of the agenda for the new Conservative government, senior Tories have said. ''

//UKIP averaged 6,200 votes iper seat seat they contested. //

They can still have "representation", in Parliament, if they want it, simply by all writing to their sitting MP, who is legally obligated to…

Actually, that should be a thread in its own right. Stand by!

// Tories are probably less likely to tear themselves apart now as the right wingers don't have the cause of "Maggie stabbed in the back" to be bitter about. //

You think Conservative MPs are going to be united over the EU referendum? The Tories fault lines usually show over Europe. The leadership will be pro-Europe, but the backbenchers won't be. Plenty of scope there for acrimonious in fighting.
