December 1910 United Kingdom General Election
The December 1910 United Kingdom general election was held from 3 to 19 December. It was the last general election to be held over several days and the last to be held before the First World War. The election took place following the efforts of the Liberal government to pass its People's Budget in 1909, which raised taxes on the wealthy to fund social welfare programs. The 1909 budget was only agreed to by the House of Lords in April 1910 after the January general election in which the Liberals and the Irish Parliamentary Party gained a majority. The Government called a further election in December 1910 to get a mandate for the Parliament Act 1911, which would prevent the House of Lords from permanently blocking legislation linked to money bills ever again, and to obtain King George V's agreement to threaten to create sufficient Liberal peers to pass that act (in the event this did not prove necessary, as the Lords voted to curtail their own powers). The Conservative Party, led ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Timothy O'Sullivan (nationalist Politician)
Timothy O'Sullivan (7 January 1879 – 5 August 1950) was an Irish nationalist politician who was Member of Parliament (MP) for East Kerry from December 1910 to 1918, taking his seat in the House of Commons of what was then the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The East Kerry seat had been won at the January 1910 general election by his cousin Eugene O'Sullivan, who had been unseated in June by an electoral court which found that he had used intimidation to win the election. No by-election was called, and the seat remained vacant until the December 1910 general election, when Timothy O'Sullivan was elected as an Irish Parliamentary Party candidate. He won the seat with 66% of the votes, defeating the All-for-Ireland League candidate Patrick Guiney. (Guiney had been MP for North Cork since January 1910, and contested two constituencies in the December elections. He returned for North Cork).
