 United Kingdom general elections   (Site not responding. Last check: )
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 generally affairs in which public opinion changes gradually from general election from election.

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 province'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.

 United Kingdom general election, 1892 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1892 UK general election was held from 4th - 26th July 1892.
It saw the Conservatives, led by Lord Salisbury, win the greatest number of seats, but not enough for an overall majority as William Gladstone's Liberals won many more seats than in the 1886 general election.
Despite being split between Parnellite and anti-Parnellite factions, the Irish Nationalist vote held up well, leaving Gladstone to form a minority coalition dependent on Irish Nationalist support.
