On Thursday 6 May 2010, the 2010 United Kingdom general election was held in England, to elect all 650 members of the House of Commons, with 533 constituencies being in England. The Conservative Party achieved a complete majority of English seats, but fared less well in Scotland and Wales, so a coalition government was subsequently formed between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.
