==Summary==
Boris Johnson easily won the election, campaigning on the incompetence of the Labour Government.
Labour lost 123 seats and Ed Milliband was forced out within the year. A fractured and disorganized party base prevented them from forming a coalition government with the Liberal Democrats. Ed Balls was elected leader of the party, but they would never recover from the slump.
2020 proved to be the best election in the history of the Liberal Democrats, as their popular, elder statesman leader Vince Cable led them to a rousing 98 seats. However, Vince Cable retired the next year at the age of 78 and was replaced by Welsh Liberal Democrat leader Kirsty Williams.
UKIP lost much of it's vote and most of it's members went to the Conservative Party or the newly formed British Defense Party (BDP) under Tommy Robinson.
