	Conservative Party - A Brief History of the Conservative Party
		It was in the wake of these upheavals that the name 'Conservative' first began to be used, as Peel sought to rally the opponents of further reform in the mid-1830s.
		After losing the two elections of February and October 1974, Heath was forced to hold a ballot for the Party leadership in February 1975 in which he was defeated by Margaret Thatcher.
		However, concentration on Europe was less effective in the June 2001 general election, and Conservative hopes of at least a partial recovery were dashed.

	Northern Ireland House of Commons, 1921-1972
		Elections to the Northern Ireland House of Commons were not on the whole great historical events, apart perhaps from the very first one in 1921 and the very last in 1968.
		Falls: Won by Nationalist in 1929, 1933, and 1938; on his death in 1942 the by-election was won by a Republican; Harry Diamond won the seat as a Socialist Republican in 1945 and held it for the rest of this period, changing his designation to Republican Labour in 1953.
		The last election ever held to the Northern Ireland House of Commons took place for the Belfast St Anne's seat in November 1970 after the death of an anti-reform official Unionist, and resulted in the victory of his son, who is now a UUP life peer.

	South Africa - The Great Depression and the 1930s
		Hertzog, whose National Party had won the 1929 election alone, after splitting with the Labour Party, received much of the blame for the devastating economic impact of the depression.
		Fearing electoral defeat in the next election (1934), he sought a partnership with his former opponent, Jan Smuts, and the latter's South African Party.
		Many Afrikaners criticized Hertzog's move, especially because they considered Smuts to be an opponent of Afrikaner nationalism who was too closely allied with the English mine owners; under the leadership of D.F. Malan and the Broederbond, they split away to form their own political party, the Purified National Party.

	The unbreakable mould? British third-party politics since 1924 Contemporary Review - Find Articles
		In the 1929 general election he led a barnstorming campaign around a sixpenny pamphlet entitled We Can Conquer Unemployment, pushing for the sort of public works programme that Ramsay MacDonald's second Labour government of 1929-31 was to reject as too dangerous a departure from economic orthodoxy.
		His 'radical New Liberalism' of the 1920s won him a mere 59 seats in the 1929 election, though even this is a hill which the Liberals have failed to climb since, (albeit they are currently very close to it at 55).
		Their share of the vote rose from 3 per cent in the 1951 and 1955 elections (6 seats each time) to 6 per cent in 1959 (6 seats again) and 11 per cent in 1964 (9 seats).

	United Kingdom general election, 2005 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The general election took place in 646 constituencies across the United Kingdom, for seats in the House of Commons.
		In Northern Ireland, the election was dominated in the unionist community by a battle between the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) and the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP).
		Other elections in the province have shown both a shift in votes towards the DUP but also a collapse of support for the cross-community Alliance Party which is likely to be more marked in a first past the post election and thus which may work in the UUP's favour.
