Summary of A New Government




    On the 6th of May Britain had a new government. It is called the labor party. Tony Blair and Gordon Brown are the prime ministers. It was accomplished since 1997. The leader of the conservative is called David Cameron. The conservative labor prefers mostly the free market, privatization and low taxation. Therefore, that will designate a greater economic and social quality. The distance between both of these parties had decreased and became more balanced. In the general elections 36% of the votes went to the conservatives, 29% went to the labor, 23% went to the Lib Dems and the rest of the votes went to the smaller parties. There are 650 seats in the British parliament, 306 seats went to the conservatives, 258 went to the labor and 57 seats went to the Lib Dems. On The 11th of May the conservatives and the Lib Dems formed a coalition. There are 650 separate local elections and most of these elections the conservative or labor candidates win them. On the parliament the party that wins is only represented but the others they don’t represent them. Some of the British says that some of the electoral system is unfair. So they came to settle down for a compromise to an alternative vote system for the future general elections, which would be more appropriate than the current system.
