2 party system is failing in the UK. Labour is following the Conservatives with the 'broad-church', which has led to 5 (Tory) PMs since Brexit, and now a possible 6th (Labour). Personally, I think we need stability, drop the theatrics and focus on the manifesto commitments (which they have been doing reasonably well - with a few notable setbacks).
