Daneben gibt es die Liberaldemokratische Partei (Liberal Democrats) und weitere, vor allem regionale Parteien: Party of Wales; Scottish National Party; Democratic Unionist Party (Nordirland); Sinn Fein (Nordirland); Social Democratic and Labor Party or SDLP (Nordirland); Ulster Unionist Party (Nordirland).

Das Parteienspektrum des
Landes:
Neben den drei traditionellen
Parteien haben sich im Laufe der siebziger Jahre in den einzelnen
Landesteilen neue nationalistische Parteien neben den drei bisherigen
etabliert.
Die parlamentarischen Verhältnisse
im Land seit der letzten Wahl zum Unterhaus am 7. Juni 2001:
Dabei ging die Labour um Premierminister Tony Blair erneut als Sieger - wenn
auch nicht als Triumphator - hervor. Die konservativen Tories hingegen
erlitten ihre größte Niederlage seit 150 Jahren. Jedoch konnten sich nur
die erstarkten Liberaldemokraten einige Sitze im Unterhaus hinzugewinnen.
Die Wahlbeteiligung erreichte mit 63 % einen Tiefststand seit 1918.
