English election results 1918-2019

English voters represent over 80 percent of the electorate in the United Kingdom, with 533 of the 650 seats in the United Kingdom's House of Commons belonging to MPs from England. Due to this fact, the share of votes across the United Kingdom as a whole is very similar to England. Between 1918 and 2019 the largest vote share a party has achieved in England was in 1931 when the Conservative party won 63.5 percent of the vote.
