The Fifth United Kingdom general election was held on 30 January 2019 to elect 650 members to the House of Commons. Under the leadership of Enzo Liddell-Grainger, the governing Conservative Party was re-elected to serve a second term in government with another landslide victory, returning 431 seats with a net gain from the previous election of another additional 10 seats. It was dubbed "the quiet blue wave" by the media, given the result was fairly expected, although most pundits imagined the Tories would make a small amount of losses as opposed to gains.

The Labour Party were handed another crushing defeat which was significantly worse than even the last one, with their figures in parliament now falling to single figures with 87 seats, a net loss of 18, calling into question whether they would ever in fact be elected, given the inactive nature of their party and the rise of other third parties.

This election saw the collapse of the UK Independence Party, now being lead by Brayden Soul given the departure of George Windsor to found the new Imperial Party, with a more nationalist focus. Despite this UKIP still managed to win 12 seats in the South West of England, which remained loyal to the party over the new Imperials, and actually saw a net gain for the party in that region. Meanwhile the with the Imperials, who re-branded as the National Populist Party mid-way into the campaign, although they were still registered as The Imperial Party on the ballot, saw a robust performance for a new party, and essentially just inherited UKIP's seats given the party is essentially built up from the same members.

The Liberal Democrats enjoyed their strongest election result since forming in this election, with 40 seats, a gain of 11. The Lib Dems managed to pool various dissatisfied Labour voters, especially ones displeased by their apathetic leadership and social conservatism, leading to the Lib Dems to be viewed by many as the default liberal left-wing party of the UK.

Outside of the larger parties, the National Fascists dropped down from 32 to 13 seats, and the DUP and UUP in Northern Ireland essentially stayed the same as the last election, although the UUP gained one seat at the DUP's expense. For the first time ever, there were also vacant seats, in Scotland where no one contested them for the election.
