The UK general election of December 1910 was the last held over several days, from 3rd – 19th December 1910.
The Conservatives, led by Arthur Balfour, and Liberals, led by Herbert Asquith, could not break the deadlock produced in the January general election, but the Liberals formed a government with the support of the Irish Nationalists.
