	Politics of Scotland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		To replace the Scottish Office, the former UK government department who fought in Scotland's corner, a devolved administration called the Scottish Executive was established, with the First Minister of Scotland at its head.
		Until the 2005 General Election, Scotland elected 72 MPs from 72 single-member constituencies to serve in the House of Commons.
		However by 1885 around 50% of the male population had the vote, the secret ballot had become established, and the modern political era had started.

		The UK general election, 2001 was held on 7 June 2001 and was dubbed "the quiet landslide" by the media.
		The elections were also marked by apathy from the voting public, turnout being only 59%, the lowest since 1918.
		Throughout the election the Labour party had maintained a significant lead in the opinion polls and the result was deemed to be so certain that some bookmakers paid out for a Labour majority before the election day.

	Definition of UK general election
		United Kingdom general elections are the times when the Members of Parliament forming the House of Commons are elected.
		Since the maximum term of a parliament is five years, the interval between successive general elections can exceed that period by no more than the combined length of the election campaign and time for the new parliament to assemble (typically five to eight weeks).
		In the UK general elections are usually affairs in which public opinion changes gradually from general election from election.

	UK: Electoral System Experimentation in Cradle of FPTP (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		First, FPTP in the UK has led to some highly disproportional results where minority parties received far fewer seats than their percentage vote might have indicated and has led to situations where the "losing" party, in terms of votes won, became the winning party in term of seats won and thus formed the government.
		The uphill struggle that new parties face under FPTP was dramatically illustrated in the 1989 UK European elections when the UK Green Party won 15 percent of the vote but not a single seat.
		Opponents of PR also point to the fact that all, bar one, UK governments in the post-war period have been single party governments and predict that the coalition governments, which would most likely result from a PR system, would be destabilizing to the country as a whole.

		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) to be the region's largest unionist party in Parliament.
		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.
		The results were interpreted by the UK media as an indicator of a breakdown in trust in the government, and in the Prime Minister, Tony Blair, in particular.
