2015 UK GENERAL ELECTION TIMETABLE


If you would like a great stat and information finder then
@AndyJSajs is your man

Below is some great information he has found about the timetable of events leading up to the general election

www.parliament.uk/about/how/elections-and-voting/general/general-election-timetable-2015/

"Parliament will now be dissolved 25 days before the general election on 7 May 2015, instead of 17 days. According to this timetable, Parliament will be dissolved on Monday 30 March 2015."

Electoral Commission pages:

Parliament page:
www.parliament.uk/business/publications/research/briefing-papers/SN06574/timetable-for-the-uk-parliamentary-general-election

pdf:

From this page it sounds like the date/time for nominations to be returned is 4pm on Thursday 9th April, and publication of statement of persons nominated is 4pm on Friday 10th April:
www.bedford.gov.uk/council_and_democracy/elections/elections_-_general_info/elections_2015/2015_election_timetable.aspx

So Parliament will be dissolved in 63 days, nominations have to be returned in 73 days, and the election is in 101 days.
