A hung parliament occurs when no single party gains an outright majority of seats in the legislature. In the UK, this means that no party has more than 326 seats in the House of Commons, which has a total of 650 seats. Consequently, a hung parliament typically results in parties needing to negotiate alliances or agreements to form a government. The exact number of seats for a hung parliament can vary depending on the overall distribution of seats among parties.
