The Seventeenth United Kingdom general election was held on 24 April 2019 to elect 36 members to the House of Commons. The election saw another large Conservative victory led by longtime leader and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Enzo Liddell-Grainger. The election was yet another landslide victory for the Conservatives which saw their supermajority actually increase to take up nearly 78% of the House of Commons. Labour made a net loss of one seat.

The election once again saw politics polarised with only the two major parties returning MPs to the commons with the exception of the DUP which is a satellite for the Conservatives in Northern Ireland anyway. A notable event of this election was the continuing in-fighting within the Labour Party, which saw longtime leader John Ruskin and leader of the Blue Labour faction up against relative newcomer Henry Long and party leadership regularly alternated between the pair due to mostly even support, leading to both being essentially considered Labour leader.

There were numerous close races, with the Liberal Democrats being edged out of Cornwall and Devon, the Scottish National Party came close to winning both Northern Scotland and Eastern Scotland, and there were numerous close races with Labour including Cumbria and Lancashire however the Conservatives overall came out on top in these marginal races.

The most notable person to lose their seat this election was Chancellor of the Exchequer Michael Heseltine in Greater Birmingham to Labour.
