United Kingdom General Election, 2017 (NormBae)

The United Kingdom general election of 2017 took place on Thursday 8 June. Each of the 650 constituencies elected one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons. The governing Conservative Party won the most seats, however short of the 326 (322 with SF Abstaining) needed for a majority.

After several weeks of negotiations Theresa May formed a minority government with support from the DUP, UUP and Independent Sylvia Hermon. This however left May nine seats short of the majority needed, possible support from the Liberal Democrats following more negotiations is rumoured, however given the anti-Brexit stance of the Lib Dems this seems more and more unlikely.
