If this would happen, I'm pretty sure some or other power-hungry fractions of the party would try to make a new party, so you'd again have two (or more) competing.
- jiggy2011 12y agoA new party isn't necessary , Labour/Liberals would poach ambitious tory backbenchers by offering places in the shadow cabinet and UKIP would poach Euroskeptics. Most of these MPs could probably take their seats with them.
- asuffield 12y agoI would not be surprised by seeing a Tory split (into the nationalist and libertarian factions), but it would take years - there's a lot of money holding the two halves of their party together. I wouldn't like this outcome much though - it would mean Cameron was the representative of the "nicer party" in British politics.
