1959 United Kingdom general election (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

• Les eleccions al Parlament del Regne Unit de 1959 es van celebrar el 8 d'octubre de 1959. Va guanyar per majoria absoluta el Partit Conservador de Harold Macmillan. (ca)
• The 1959 United Kingdom general election was held on Thursday, 8 October 1959. It marked a third consecutive victory for the ruling Conservative Party, now led by Harold Macmillan. For the second time in a row, the Conservatives increased their overall majority in Parliament, this time to a landslide majority of 100 seats, having gained 20 seats for a return of 365. The Labour Party, led by Hugh Gaitskell, lost 19 seats and returned 258. The Liberal Party, led by Jo Grimond, again returned only six MPs to the House of Commons, but managed to increase its overall share of the vote to 5.9%, compared to just 2.7% four years earlier. The Conservatives won the largest number of votes in Scotland, but narrowly failed to win the most seats in that country. They have not made either achievement ever since. Both Jeremy Thorpe, a future Liberal leader, and Margaret Thatcher, a future Conservative leader and eventually Prime Minister, first entered the House of Commons after this election. (en)

• Le elezioni generali nel Regno Unito del 1959 si tennero l'8 ottobre e rappresentarono la terza vittoria consecutiva per il Partito Conservatore, allora guidato da Harold Macmillan. I conservatori incrementarono ulteriormente la propria presenza in Parlamento fino a 100 seggi di vantaggio rispetto al Partito Laburista di Hugh Gaitskell. Tuttavia, nonostante questo successo, non riuscirono ad ottenere la maggioranza dei seggi in Scozia, dando inizio ad una tendenza che si protrae fino ad oggi; da allora infatti i laburisti mantennero il dominio in Scozia, fino alla crescita del Partito Nazionale Scozzese alle elezioni del 2015. (it)
• Парламентські вибори у Великій Британії проходили 8 жовтня 1959 року. Вони ознаменували третю поспіль перемогу правлячої консервативної партії, очолювану Гарольдом Макмілланом. Консерватори збільшили свою перевагу, знову ж таки, на 101 місце над Лейбористською партією, очолюваною Х'ю Гейтскеллом та Ліберальною партією, очолюваною Джо Грімондом. Це на сьогоднішній день єдиний випадок після Другої Світової війни, коли урядові вдалося збільшити підтримку в парламенті та втретє підряд сформувати уряд. Однак, незважаючи на цей успіх, консерваторам не вдалося завоювати більшість місць у Шотландії, чого не зроблено і досі. А це означає початок панування лейбористів Шотландії у Вестмінстері, яка проіснувала до підйому Шотландської національної партії на парламентських виборах 2015 року. На цих виборах вперше стали депутатами майбутній лідер ліберальної партії Джеремі Торп та майбутній лідер консерваторів і прем'єр-міністр Маргарет Тетчер. (uk)
• Парламентские выборы в Великобритании 1959 года — демократические выборы, прошедшие 8 октября 1959 года. Консерваторы, возглавляемые Гарольдом Макмилланом, победили на выборах и увеличили отрыв от лейбористов во главе с Хью Гайтскеллом до 107 мест в Палате общин. (ru)
• 1959年英國大選舉辦於1959年10月8日。保守黨連續三次在大選中獲勝，其議席數比自由黨和工黨合計還要多101席，這也是英國戰後首次出現政府在第三個任期時仍增加議會多數的情況。但另一方面，工黨在蘇格蘭獲得了最多席位。得益於經濟成長，保守黨得以在這次選舉中取得席次增加。 (zh)

• Парламентские выборы в Великобритании 1959 года — демократические выборы, прошедшие 8 октября 1959 года. Консерваторы, возглавляемые Гарольдом Макмилланом, победили на выборах и увеличили отрыв от лейбористов во главе с Хью Гайтскеллом до 107 мест в Палате общин. (ru)
• 1959年英國大選舉辦於1959年10月8日。保守黨連續三次在大選中獲勝，其議席數比自由黨和工黨合計還要多101席，這也是英國戰後首次出現政府在第三個任期時仍增加議會多數的情況。但另一方面，工黨在蘇格蘭獲得了最多席位。得益於經濟成長，保守黨得以在這次選舉中取得席次增加。 (zh)
• The 1959 United Kingdom general election was held on Thursday, 8 October 1959. It marked a third consecutive victory for the ruling Conservative Party, now led by Harold Macmillan. For the second time in a row, the Conservatives increased their overall majority in Parliament, this time to a landslide majority of 100 seats, having gained 20 seats for a return of 365. The Labour Party, led by Hugh Gaitskell, lost 19 seats and returned 258. The Liberal Party, led by Jo Grimond, again returned only six MPs to the House of Commons, but managed to increase its overall share of the vote to 5.9%, compared to just 2.7% four years earlier.

• Парламентські вибори у Великій Британії проходили 8 жовтня 1959 року. Вони ознаменували третю поспіль перемогу правлячої консервативної партії, очолювану Гарольдом Макмілланом. Консерватори збільшили свою перевагу, знову ж таки, на 101 місце над Лейбористською партією, очолюваною Х'ю Гейтскеллом та Ліберальною партією, очолюваною Джо Грімондом. Це на сьогоднішній день єдиний випадок після Другої Світової війни, коли урядові вдалося збільшити підтримку в парламенті та втретє підряд сформувати уряд. Однак, незважаючи на цей успіх, консерваторам не вдалося завоювати більшість місць у Шотландії, чого не зроблено і досі. А це означає початок панування лейбористів Шотландії у Вестмінстері, яка проіснувала до підйому Шотландської національної партії на парламентських виборах 2015 року. (uk)
