United Kingdom general election of 2015

Hi everybody!

I have heard about the election of GB which was held on 7 May 2015. So I read an article in the online edition of BBC News which talks about the election of UK.
The official result is:

Basically what it says is that the Conservatives win the election with 36.9 % and receive 331 seats in the House of Commons, so a majority government will be formed. A party need to win one more than half to form a majority government. Then the second one is the Labour party with 30.4 %, the third one is the UK Independence Party with 12.6 %. The Liberal Democrats reached 7.9%, the Scottish National Party reached 4.7 and the Green Party of England and Wales 3.8%.


I will give you some information of the three main parties.
