    • The 1929 UK general election was held on 30 May 1929, and resulted in a hung parliament. It was the first of only three elections under universal suffrage in which a party lost the popular vote but gained a plurality of seats. In 1929 that party was Ramsay MacDonald's Labour, which won the most seats in the Commons for the first time ever but failed to get a majority.

    • The Northern Ireland general election, 1929 was held on 22 May 1929.

As with the rest of the United Kingdom, this has made it more difficult for independent and minor party candidates to gain election.
