These are the results of the 2010 United Kingdom general election in England. The election was held on 6 May 2010 and all 533 seats in England were contested. The Conservative Party achieved a complete majority of English seats, but fared less well in Scotland and Wales, so a coalition government was subsequently formed between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.
