different definitions. Most if not all majority governments are voted
in by a minority of the electorate. I cant remember a 50% vote for any

Best I can find in mine was 49.7% in 1955, but that was when the Liberals
were at their lowest, 2.7% and six seats. With the growth of minor
parties it could never happen now. The landslides of Mrs T 1983 and Tony
Blair 1997 were on the back of 42.4/43.2% shares of the vote.
