dbpprop:abstract
  • The UK general election held on 14 November 1935 resulted in a large, though reduced, majority for the National Government now led by Conservative Stanley Baldwin. The greatest number of MPs, as before, were Conservative, while the National Liberal vote held steady. The National Labour vote collapsed, and even leader Ramsay MacDonald lost his seat. Labour, under what was then regarded internally as the caretaker leadership of Clement Attlee, made large gains over their very poor showing in the 1931 general election. The Liberals continued their slow political demise and lost further ground, with their leader Sir Herbert Samuel losing his own seat. The Independent Labour Party stood separately from Labour for the first time since 1895, while the Scottish National Party contested their first election, and the Communist Party gained their first parliamentary seat in almost ten years, West Fife. The major election issues were the continuing unemployment problems and the role of the League of Nations, particularly as regarding the Empire of Japan. Due to the Second World War, the 1935 elected House was to sit until 1945.
  • Parlamentsvalet i Storbritannien 1935 hölls den 14 november 1935 och resulterade i en stor, om än reducerad, majoritet för den nationella regeringskoalitionen, som nu leddes av Stanley Baldwin. Den stora merparten av denna majoritet var, nu som tidigare, det konservativa partiets mandat, medan National Liberal Party i stort sett höll ställningarna. National Labour Party led en stor tillbakagång och till och med partiledaren och förre premiärministern Ramsay MacDonald förlorade sin plats. Labour, under Clement Attlees ledarskap, som ursprungligen sågs som en övergångslösning, gjorde stora framsteg från sitt mycket dåliga resultat i valet 1931, men Liberal Party gick tillbaka ytterligare. Independent Labour Party ställde upp som separat parti för första gången sedan 1895, Scottish National Party ställde upp i val för första gången och Communist Party of Great Britain tog sin första parlamentsplats på nästan tio år, för valkretsen West Fife. De stora valfrågorna var de fortsatta problemen med arbetslöshet och Nationernas förbunds roll, särskilt i förhållande till Japan. På grund av andra världskriget kom det underhus som valdes i detta val att sitta ända till 1945. Totalt antal avlagda röster: 20 991 488. Alla partier med mer än 2000 röster visade. Conservative Party inkluderar Ulsterunionister. Mandaten för ILP är jämförda med dem för ILP-kandidater inom Labour i det föregående parlamentet.
