The Coalition (2010 UK government)

The Coalition government of the UK in 2010 was a partnership between the Conservative Party and the Liberal Democrats, formed after the 2010 general election resulted in no single party gaining an overall majority. To govern effectively, the two parties agreed to share power, combining their policies and leadership. This arrangement was unique in modern UK politics and required compromise on certain issues. The coalition lasted until 2015, shaping policies on the economy, public services, and social reform, and marked a significant shift in the country’s political landscape, emphasizing cooperation between parties to provide stable governance.
