Boundary changes coming in will in effect remove more than twice as many seats from Labour,than it will Conservative ones.

What the UK needs is PR for general elections otherwise the prospect is Conservative led govt for the foreseeable future now.
However the one and only party that will never look at PR seriously is the Conservative party.
That may be good for the far South of England only but a bleak outlook for all the rest of the UK.
I'm sure if Labour could get their act together and find a decent leader it would help. New Labour managed to win seats from the Tories down south.
