2019 General Election Results

2019 GENERAL ELECTION

The 2019 UK general election, held on 12 December 2019, was the first December election in nearly a century and was held after several failed attempts by the government to secure support for its Brexit deal. The election campaign was dominated by Brexit and the future of the United Kingdom, with the Conservative Party promising to “Get Brexit Done” and the Labour Party offering a second referendum on Brexit. Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour leader, also offered a radical and extensive manifesto.

The election saw a number of significant changes in the political landscape, including the loss of several prominent Labour Party figures and the rise of the Scottish National Party, which won 48 of the 59 seats in Scotland meaning that they became the third largest party in the House of Commons. The Liberal Democrats also made gains in their vote share, but were only able to win 11 seats.

The Conservative Party’s victory was seen as an endorsement of Boris Johnson’s leadership and his approach to Brexit. It also marked the end of the political deadlock that had gripped the country for several years and paved the way for the UK to leave the European Union on January 31, 2020. The election was widely considered to be one of the most important in recent British history and had far-reaching consequences for the future of the country.

For Jeremy Corbyn, despite being considered a popular figure among the Labour Party’s grassroots, he faced significant challenges in the election. Labour suffered its worst electoral defeat since 1935, winning 203 seats, compared to 262 in the previous election. Critics of Corbyn blamed his leadership and policies, particularly on Brexit and national security, for the party’s poor showing. Some also pointed to the Labour Party’s internal divisions and allegations of anti-Semitism within the party. Despite the election result, Corbyn remained popular with many supporters and was seen as a charismatic and principled leader who brought new ideas to the political mainstream. However, after the election, he faced pressure to resign and was eventually succeeded as leader by Sir Keir Starmer in April 2020.

Below are details of the overall result, as well as the individual constituency results.
