Labor Party gains big win in British election
London May 31 The Labor Party led by Ramsay MacDonald won a substantial victory in the general election, displacing the Conservative government of Baldwin. Labour secured 389 seats with a net gain of 228, while Conservatives fell to 252 seats. The result gives Labour a precarious hold without a clear majority, raising questions about a stable government and potential new elections within months. Observers note Lloyd George's Liberal party will hold power as kingpin in parliamentary balance. MacDonald vows to form a cabinet if asked, and crowds greet him in London amid tentative plans for a coalition. Seven women were elected, the first time women filled seven seats in the Commons. The stock market reacted with caution to the prospect of a hung parliament.
