Its only because of the constituency boundaries in the North of England which is predominently Labour and the anti-Tories in Scotland that they are out of government. Remember the Conservatives polled more votes in England than Labour but finished up with 60 or so less seats.
Politics needs people in the House Of Commons who are going to speak out on issues without tip-toeing around evading questions
and thats why I believe Derek would be a welcome addition as an MP because hes not one to mince his words.
And just because he is an MP doesn't automatically guarantee him a cabinet post. He would need to work for that.

*ducks to dodge the flying pigs, and crosses the street to avoid the band playing believe it if you like* POPPYCOCK! The tories aren't in office because of weak leadership and the fact that they campaigned with a manifesto of racism, bigotry, and plans to dismantle the NHS.
And, of course, Derek is going to completely reverse the status quo, isn't he? After all, he's not the brown-nosing, obsequious lickspittle type at all ... The ability to browbeat a couple of simpering, walking bikini hangers, slither unctuously all over men young enough to be his children and harbouring a blatant hatred of his intellectual superior for being comfortable in his own skin are just the qualities we’ve been crying out for in UK politics. 
No, he just mispronounces them and uses them in the wrong context.
And grass is green and the sky blue. Well, there's a first time for everything, I suppose.
Basic conservatism: racism, misogyny, homophobia and one-upmanship. Xenophobia, bigotry and intolerance. Minuscule tax cuts to appease the working class backbone of the nation, massive tax cuts for the old-school-tie brigade feeding on the marrow of the needy, and then privatise everything in sight and sell it back to the people that already owned it in the first place to foot the bill.
