i) I agree Labour party (and centre-left/left as a whole) needs to become more united

ii) Tories have been in power for something like 85 of past 105 years. They're looking to secure that longer term with boundary changes and removal of caps on election spending. The UK is basically a one party-state and it could get much worse.
