About this result
UK general elections are decided constituency by constituency using First Past the Post. The party with the largest UK-wide vote share is not necessarily the party with the most seats, so the seat result and vote share should be read separately.
Historical comparisons also need to allow for changes to constituency boundaries and the number of Commons seats.
