Project 596[edit]

Is it worth including, in the televised section, that it was notable for the reaction of the studio guests when it was announced on air that China has just detonated their first nuclear device at 7am gmt on the 16th as results were still coming in ? 596_(nuclear_test) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pgb62uk (talk • contribs) 07:39, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cities of London and Westminster South by-election[edit]

Before anyone raises a stink, I had to put Independent Conservative because I couldn't find a colour for Speaker of the House of Commons. Is there such a colour and if so, what's the code?

I've removed the list of by-elections, as this article is on the general election, and we already have details of the by-elections at the list of UK by-elections. You can find the codes for (almost) any affiliation at Wikipedia:Index of United Kingdom political parties meta attributes. Warofdreams talk 12:50, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Change to external links[edit]

The political resources at Keele University have moved from: http://www.psr.keele.ac.uk/ to http://www.politicsresources.net/. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cjjm (talk • contribs) 20:42, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Northern Ireland Labour Party[edit]

Are the votes for the Northern Ireland Labour party (102,759) included in the Labour total, and if so should this not be indicated? 143.239.203.119 (talk) 15:01, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tables[edit]

The main election tables vary from year to year. I would strongly suggest just using the same outline for all years. Right now maybe 3-4 different outlines are used which makes it harder to compare elections. JurijFedorov (talk) 14:31, 23 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

References for results[edit]

This page has many quantitative election results, but doesn't provide references for them. Are references available? If not, it seems like the information should be removed. -- Mikeblas (talk) 19:30, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I found some references hiding in the EL section; I've made these into proper references, though that was cumbersome since the templates used here don't seem to support references. I've removed other unreferenced material and marked a section or two unreferenced. -- Mikeblas (talk) 15:09, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"racist.... Peter Griffith"[edit]

Thats far-left talk and POV, hardly objective. 93.206.59.250 (talk) 00:48, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
