To be fair Oliver, the electoral system favours Labour at the moment. Labour held seats tend to be smaller than Conservative held ones. It takes fewer votes to elect an MP in a Labour constituency and more to elect an MP in a Tory constituency.
Labour have in the past played the boundary game better than the other parties.
Though it's not gerrymandering on the US level just normal politics. The answer is, of course, a PR system, but the inept Lib Dems lost any chance of that happening for a generation.
