We are having one and we have to have one. The UK must have a general election within five years of the last one. The last general election was in 2005 this being means the government have waited until the last possible year to have one. It is important to follow the rules strictly, since any weakness could be exploited by a would-be dictator.

UK general election of 2005 was held on Thursday, 5 May 2005 . The general election took place in 646 constituencies across the United Kingdom, under the first-past-the-post system, for seats in the House of Commons. All but one constituency polled on 5 May; the South Staffordshire vote was postponed and took place on 23 June due to the death of a candidate.

Yes.
