We've seen in the past how that kind of ultimate power corrupts.
It will be interesting to see what happens from a political point of view, but without a capable opposition, its frightening as hell.
A lot of people are being stabbed in the back by this merger.

Yes, because having 14 more seats when you already have 63 really makes one-iota of difference when you've already got an absolute majority.
If anything, there is more "opposition" from within now that might affect change that will actually happen within the PCs, as opposed to just WRP's making noise with no impact.
