My money is on Labour essentially just becoming the new centre-Right party; I think they're copying Blair's playbook enough to be holding back the full depth of their anti-Leftism until after the election is won. Once it's won, I think we'll see a lot of the social-democratic and labour-unionist voices dropping out of the party as the realities of power make ambiguity impossible.
The more interesting question, IMHO, is what happens to the Conservative rump? Farage's new Reform party is polling well these days. It's not impossible that the Conservatives either disappear entirely, their voters stolen by the fascists, or else become overtly fascist themselves in an attempt to prevent this.
