	United Kingdom general election, 1945 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The United Kingdom General Election of 1945 was one of the most significant general elections of the 20th century.
		It resulted in the shock election defeat of the Conservatives led by Winston Churchill and the landslide victory of the Labour Party led by Clement Attlee, who won a majority of 145 seats.
