	United Kingdom general election, February 1974 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The UK general election of February 1974 was held on February 28, 1974.
		It was the first of two United Kingdom general elections held that year, and the only election since the Second World War not to produce an overall majority in the House of Commons for the winning party, instead producing a hung parliament.
		The sole Republican Labour Party MP elected in 1970 subsequently left that party to co-found the Social Democrat and Labour Party in 1970 and the remains of the party disintegrated by 1974.

	FISHERIES CASE
		The facts which led the United Kingdom to bring the case before the Court are briefly as follows.
		Basing itself on the analogy with the alleged general rule of ten miles relating to bays, the United Kingdom Government still maintains on this point that the length of straight lines must not exceed ten miles.
		Consequently, the Court is unable to share the view of the United Kingdom Government, that 'Norway, in the matter of base-lines, now claims recognition of an exceptional system'. As will be shown later, all that the Court can see therein is the application of general international law to a specific case.
