The government called the January 1910 general election
Time: Jan, 1910
Place: United Kingdom
Details: The government called the January 1910 general election, which resulted in a narrow Liberal victory; Churchill retained his seat at Dundee. After the election, he proposed the abolition of the House of Lords in a cabinet memorandum, suggesting that it be replaced either by a unicameral system or by a new, smaller second chamber that lacked an in-built advantage for the Conservatives.

Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
