1945年英国大选(英语:1945 United Kingdom general election)是英国于1945年7月5日举行的全国性选举。由于部分选区的投票延迟了数天,计票也因而推迟至7月26日,以便有足够时间让海外服役选民之选票带回英国。[1][2]当时执政的保守党试图维系其在国会中的多数地位,但面临着战后该如何重建英国的问题。首相丘吉尔在第二次世界大战欧洲战事结束不到一个月后即宣布内阁总辞,并在国会过半数通过下提议举行大选。[3]
The 1945 United Kingdom general election was a national election held on Thursday 5 July 1945, but polling in some constituencies was delayed by some days, and the counting of votes was delayed until 26 July to provide time for overseas votes to be brought to Britain. The governing Conservative Party sought to maintain its position in Parliament but faced challenges from public opinion about the future of the United Kingdom in the post-war period. Prime Minister Winston Churchill proposed to call for a general election in Parliament, which passed with a majority vote less than two months after the conclusion of the Second World War in Europe.[3]
竞选活动主要集中在国家领袖和其战后未来的问题上。保守党方面,丘吉尔试图利用其战时声望,以维持1940年起战时联合政府中的多数地位,但他面临着公众对其处理国内问题的能力的质疑,及1930年代
与其他政党组成的战时联合政府中的执政地位,但他面临着公众对保守党在的行动以及他处理非战争相关国内问题的能力的质疑。工党领袖克莱门特·艾德礼在1940-1945年的战时联合政府中担任副首相,被选民视为更有能力的领袖,特别是那些担心回到1930年代高失业率水平并希望有一个强有力的领袖来领导战后重建国家的选民。选举时的民意调查显示,丘吉尔的支持率很高,但工党在战争结束前的几个月里逐渐获得支持。
The election's campaigning was focused on leadership of the country and its postwar future. Churchill sought to use his wartime popularity as part of his campaign to keep the Conservatives in power after a wartime coalition had been in place since 1940 with the other political parties, but he faced questions from public opinion surrounding the Conservatives' actions in the 1930s and his ability to handle domestic issues unrelated to warfare. Clement Attlee, leader of the Labour Party, had been Deputy Prime Minister in the wartime coalition in 1940–1945 and was seen as a more competent leader by voters, particularly those who feared a return to the levels of unemployment in the 1930s and sought a strong figurehead in British politics to lead the postwar rebuilding of the country. Opinion polls when the election was called showed strong approval ratings for Churchill, but Labour had gradually gained support for months before the war's conclusion.
The final result of the election showed Labour to have won a landslide victory,[4] making a net gain of 239 seats, winning 49.7% of the popular vote and achieving a majority of 145 seats, thus allowing Attlee to be appointed prime minister. This election marked the first time that the Labour Party had won an outright majority in Parliament, and allowed Attlee to begin implementing the party's post-war reforms for the country.[5] For the Conservatives, the Labour victory was a shock,[6] as they suffered a net loss of 189 seats although they won 36.2% of the vote and had campaigned on the mistaken belief that Churchill would win as people praised his progression of the war. Of the other two major parties, the Liberal Party faced a serious blow after taking a net loss of nine seats with a vote share of 9.0%, many within urban areas and including the seat held by its leader, Archibald Sinclair. The Liberal National Party fared significantly worse, enduring a net loss of 22 seats with a vote share of 2.9%, with its leader Ernest Brown losing his seat. 324 MPs were elected for the first time which is the record turnover as of 2024.[7]
The 10.7% swing from the Conservatives to an opposition party is the largest since the Acts of Union 1800; the Conservative loss of the vote exceeded that of the 1906 Liberal landslide ousting of a Conservative administration. It was also the first election since 1906 in which the Conservatives did not win the popular vote. Churchill remained actively involved in politics and returned as prime minister after leading his party into the 1951 general election. For the Liberal National Party the election was their last as a distinct party, as they merged with the Conservatives in 1947 while Ernest Brown resigned from politics in the aftermath of the election.
1945年英国大选(英语:1945 United Kingdom general election)于1945年7月5日举行,
1945年英国大选于1945年7月5日(星期四)举行,但由于部分选区的投票延迟了数天,计票也推迟至7月26日,以便有足够时间将海外选票带回英国。当时的执政保守党试图保持其在议会中的地位,但面临着关于战后英国未来的公众意见挑战。首相温斯顿·丘吉尔提议在议会中举行大选,并在欧洲二战结束不到两个月后以多数票通过。
选举活动主要集中在国家领导和战后未来的问题上。丘吉尔试图利用他在战时的声望作为竞选的一部分,以保持保守党在1940年以来与其他政党组成的战时联合政府中的执政地位,但他面临着公众对保守党在1930年代的行动以及他处理非战争相关国内问题的能力的质疑。工党领袖克莱门特·艾德礼在1940-1945年的战时联合政府中担任副首相,被选民视为更有能力的领袖,特别是那些担心回到1930年代高失业率水平并希望有一个强有力的领袖来领导战后重建国家的选民。选举时的民意调查显示,丘吉尔的支持率很高,但工党在战争结束前的几个月里逐渐获得支持。
最终选举结果显示工党获得压倒性胜利,净增239席,赢得49.7%的普选票,并取得145席的多数席位,使艾德礼得以被任命为首相。这次选举标志着工党首次在议会中获得绝对多数,并使艾德礼能够开始实施该党的战后改革。对保守党而言,工党的胜利是一个震惊,虽然他们赢得了36.2%的选票,但净损失了189个席位。他们的竞选策略错误地认为丘吉尔会因其在战争中的进展而获胜。其他两个主要政党中,自由党遭受严重打击,净损失九个席位,仅获得9.0%的选票,这包括其领袖阿奇博尔德·辛克莱尔所持有的席位。自由国家党的表现更差,净损失22个席位,选票份额仅为2.9%,其领袖欧内斯特·布朗失去了席位。此次选举共有324名议员首次当选,创下了截至2024年的记录。
从保守党到反对党的10.7%选票转移是自1800年联合法案以来的最大转变;保守党的选票损失超过了1906年自由党压倒性击败保守党政府的情况。这也是自1906年以来保守党首次未能赢得普选票。丘吉尔仍积极参与政治,并在1951年大选中领导其政党再次当选首相。对于自由国家党来说,这次选举是他们作为一个独立政党的最后一次选举,因为他们在1947年与保守党合并,而欧内斯特·布朗在选举后退出了政坛。
Dissolution of Parliament and campaign
编辑Held less than two months following VE Day, this was the first general election since 1935, as general elections had been suspended by Parliament during the Second World War. Clement Attlee, the leader of the Labour Party, refused Winston Churchill's offer of continuing the wartime coalition until the Allied defeat of Japan. On 15 June, King George VI dissolved Parliament, which had been sitting for nearly ten years without an election.
The Labour manifesto, Let Us Face the Future, included promises of nationalisation, economic planning, full employment, a National Health Service, and a system of social security. The manifesto proved popular with the electorate, selling one and a half million copies.[8] The Conservative manifesto, Mr. Churchill's Declaration to the Voters, on the other hand, included progressive ideas on key social issues but was relatively vague on the idea of postwar economic control,[9] and the party was associated with high levels of unemployment in the 1930s.[10] It failed to convince voters that it could effectively deal with unemployment in a postwar Britain.[11] In May 1945, when the war in Europe ended, Churchill's approval ratings stood at 83%, but the Labour Party had held an 18% poll lead as of February 1945.[10]
The polls for some seats were delayed until 12 July and in Nelson and Colne until 19 July because of local wakes weeks.[12] The results were counted and declared on 26 July to allow time to transport the votes of those serving overseas. Victory over Japan Day ensued on 15 August.
Outcome
编辑The caretaker government, led by Churchill, was heavily defeated. The Labour Party led by Attlee won a landslide victory and gained a majority of 145 seats. It was the first election in which Labour gained a majority of seats and the first in which it won a plurality of votes.
The election was a disaster for the Liberal Party, which lost all of its urban seats, and marked its transition from being a party of government to a party of the political fringe.[13] Its leader, Archibald Sinclair, lost his rural seat of Caithness and Sutherland. That was the last general election until 2019 in which a major party leader lost their seat, but Sinclair lost only by a handful of votes in a very tight three-way contest.
The Liberal National Party fared even worse by losing two-thirds of its seats and falling behind the Liberals in seat count for the first time since the parties split in 1931. It was the final election that the Liberal Nationals fought as an autonomous party, as they merged with the Conservative Party two years later although they continued to exist as a subsidiary party of the Conservatives until 1968.
Future prominent figures who entered Parliament included Harold Wilson, James Callaghan, Barbara Castle, Michael Foot and Hugh Gaitskell. Future Conservative Prime Minister Harold Macmillan lost his seat, but he returned to Parliament at a by-election later that year.
Reasons for Labour victory
编辑Ralph Ingersoll reported in late 1940:
"Everywhere I went in London people admired [Churchill's] energy, his courage, his singleness of purpose. People said they didn't know what Britain would do without him. He was obviously respected. But no one felt he would be Prime Minister after the war. He was simply the right man in the right job at the right time. The time being the time of a desperate war with Britain's enemies".[14]
The historian Henry Pelling, noting that polls showed a steady Labour lead after 1942, pointed to long-term forces that caused the Labour landslide: the usual swing against the party in power, the Conservative loss of initiative, wide fears of a return to the high unemployment of the 1930s, the theme that socialist planning would be more efficient in operating the economy, and the mistaken belief that Churchill would continue as prime minister regardless of the result.[15]
Labour strengths
编辑The greatest factor in Labour's dramatic win appeared to be its policy of social reform. In one opinion poll, 41% of respondents considered housing to be the most important issue that faced the country, 15% stated the Labour policy of full employment, 7% mentioned social security, 6% nationalisation, and just 5% international security, which was emphasised by the Conservatives.
The Beveridge Report, published in 1942, proposed the creation of a welfare state. It called for a dramatic turn in British social policy, with provision for nationalised healthcare, expansion of state-funded education, National Insurance and a new housing policy. The report was extremely popular, and copies of its findings were widely purchased, turning it into a best-seller. The Labour Party adopted the report eagerly,[6] and the Conservatives (including Churchill, who did not regard the reforms as socialist) accepted many of the principles of the report, but claimed that they were not affordable.[17] Labour offered a new comprehensive welfare policy, reflecting a consensus that social changes were needed.[5] The Conservatives were not willing to make the same changes that Labour proposed, and appeared out of step with public opinion.
Labour played to the concept of "winning the peace" that would follow the war. Possibly for that reason, there was especially strong support for Labour in the armed services, which feared the unemployment and homelessness to which the soldiers of the First World War had returned. It has been claimed that the left-wing bias of teachers in the armed services was a contributing factor, but that argument has generally not carried much weight, and the failure of the Conservative governments in the 1920s to deliver a "land fit for heroes" was likely more important.[5]
Labour had also been given during the war the opportunity to display to the electorate its domestic competence in government, under men such as Attlee as Deputy Prime Minister, Herbert Morrison at the Home Office and Ernest Bevin at the Ministry of Labour.[9] The differing wartime strategies of the two parties likewise gave Labour an advantage. Labour continued to attack prewar Conservative governments for their inactivity in tackling Hitler, reviving the economy and rearming Britain,[18] but Churchill was less interested in furthering his party, much to the chagrin of many of its members and MPs.[10]
Conservative weaknesses
编辑Though voters respected and liked Churchill's wartime record, they were more distrustful of the Conservative Party's domestic and foreign policy record in the late 1930s.[9] Churchill and the Conservatives are also generally considered to have run a poor campaign in comparison to Labour. Churchill's personal popularity remained high; hence, the Conservatives were confident of victory and based much of their election campaign on that, rather than proposing new programmes. However, people distinguished between Churchill and his party, a contrast that Labour repeatedly emphasised throughout the campaign. Voters also harboured doubts over Churchill's ability to lead the country on the domestic front.[5] The writer and soldier Anthony Burgess remarked that Churchill, who then often wore a colonel's uniform, was not nearly as popular with soldiers at the front as with officers and civilians. Burgess noted that Churchill often smoked cigars in front of soldiers who had not had a decent cigarette in days.[19]
In addition to the poor Conservative general election strategy, Churchill went so far as to accuse Attlee of seeking to behave as a dictator, despite Attlee's service as part of Churchill's war cabinet. In the most famous incident of the campaign, Churchill's first election broadcast on 4 June backfired dramatically and memorably. Denouncing his former coalition partners, he declared that Labour "would have to fall back on some form of a Gestapo" to impose socialism on Britain.[20] Attlee responded the next night by ironically thanking the prime minister for demonstrating to the people the difference between "Churchill the great wartime leader" and "Churchill the peacetime politician" and argued the case for public control of industry.
Another blow to the Conservative campaign was the memory of the 1930s policy of appeasement, which had been conducted by Churchill's Conservative predecessors, Neville Chamberlain and Stanley Baldwin, but had been widely discredited for allowing Adolf Hitler's Germany to become too powerful.[5] Labour had strongly advocated appeasement until 1938, but the interwar period had been dominated by Conservatives. With the exception of two brief minority Labour governments in 1924 and 1929–1931, the Conservatives had been in power for all of the interwar period. As a result, the Conservatives were generally blamed for the era's mistakes: appeasement, inflation and the unemployment of the Great Depression.[5] Many voters felt that although the First World War had been won, the peace that followed had been lost.
