Všeobecné volby ve Spojeném království v prosinci 1910 se konaly od 3. do 19. prosince 1910. Byly to poslední volby před první světovou válkou a již druhé během ústavní krize, řešící práva Sněmovny lordů. Liberální vláda je vyhlásila, aby získala mandát pro prosazení ústavní reformy limitující práva sněmovny.[1]
Pozadí
Ústavní krize vznikla vetováním rozpočtu Lloyda George pro roky 1909 a 1910 Sněmovnou lordů. Dle zvykového práva byl ale takovýto krok bezprecedentní a pro liberální vládu se stal poslední kapkou k tomu, aby práva lordů omezila. V lednu 1910 se uskutečnily všeobecné volby, ve kterých Liberální strana těsně uhájila vítězství. Protože ve Sněmovně lordů měly většinu konzervativní síly, liberální premiér Herbert Henry Asquith žádal krále Jiřího V., aby v případě potřeby pro podporu jeho reformy Sněmovny lordů jmenoval stovky nových liberálních peerů. Král s ním ostýchavě souhlasil, vyžadoval nicméně, aby se v takovém případě konaly další volby.[2][3] Protože lordi reformu zamítli, konaly se v prosinci 1910 volby; liberálové v nich získali převahu jediného křesla a sestavili proto menšinovou vládu s podporou Irské parlamentní strany, čímž se znovu otevřela otázka irské samosprávy („Home Rule“). Dolní sněmovna následně znovu schválila reformu a ta již Sněmovnou lordů těsně prošla, protože vedení Konzervativní strany nařídilo svým zástupcům, aby se zdrželi hlasování.[2]

RT. KON. HERBERT HENRY ASQUITH u. & u. CHAPTER IV MR. ASQUITH Not to mention loss of time, the tone of their feelings is lowered: theybecome less in earnest about those of their opinions respecting which theymust remain silent in the society they frequent: they come to look upon theirmost elevated objects as unpractical, or at least too remote from realizationto be more than a vision or a theory: and if, more fortunate than most, theyretain their higher principles unimpaired, yet with respect to the personsand affairs of their own day, they insensibly adopt the modes of feeling andjudgment in which tliey can hope for sympathy from the company they keep—John Stuart Mill. Nothing in Mr. Asquiths career is more striking thanhis fall from power: it was as if a pin had dropped. Great men do not at any time fall in so ignominiousa fashion, much less when the fate of a great empire is inthe balance. The truth is that Mr. Asquith possesses all theappearance of greatness but few of its e

Map of the United Kingdom December 1910 general election results. Constituencies varied in the number of Member returned, with most constituencies returning 1 member, and the largest returning 2 members. Hatched colouring is used in constituencies returning members from separate parties. So, a 1:1 hatch indicates that 1 of the 2 members returned came from 1 party, with the remaining member coming from another. The colouring is also used to indicate this.
