As we all know in the 1931 General Election - the biggest landslide in electoral history - the Labour party was effectively wiped out. They were reduced to just 46 seats with the Liberals not too far behind on 32 and 35 including the National Liberals. The main reason the Liberals did not do as well was because they did not have enough financial support to field more candidates.
So, what if the Liberal Party had fielded more than the 111 otl candidates and as a result come second the General Election? Would they manage to hold on to their newly reclaimed power or would the Labour Party bounce back as they did in 1935? Would we see another Labour/Liberal Prime Minister or would Tory Dominance rule for decades? Would Labour jump further to the left at third party status, or move more to the right in order to counter the Liberal rise?
