List of successful votes of no confidence in British governments
This a list of the successful votes of no confidence in British governments led by Prime Ministers of the Kingdom of Great Britain and subsequently the United Kingdom. The first such motion of no confidence to befall a ministry was against Robert Walpole, a Whig who served from 1721 to 1742 and was the de facto first Prime Minister to hold office. Thereafter there have been 21 votes of confidence successfully motioned against British governments. The most recent vote was held against James Callaghan, a Labour Party prime minister who had succeeded Harold Wilson as a result of a 1976 leadership election. Having been defeated, Callaghan was now forced to hold a general election by May 1979; he was consequently defeated by Margaret Thatcher of the Conservative Party.
