Notes: The maps, graphics, results and predictions included on this web site were all produced by UK-Elect. The 2001 election was held on June 7th 2001. The House of Commons speaker, Michael Martin, is not included in the Labour total although he belongs to that party. All percentages are expressed as a proportion of the overall UK total. "Most Significant Swing To" indicates the party to which there was the most "significant" swing in June 2001, compared to the previous (May 1997) General Election. This is usually the first or second placed party, and typically indicates the top party that gained the most (or lost the least) votes, or the party which gained the seat. The more pronounced (less faded) the party colour, the greater the swing to that party.
