Nope The idea was to disrupt government as little as possible with elections so they were held on a Thursday. Most results would have been known that night or during the course of the following day. This gave the new government the weekend to form, the new PM could announce key appointments and all would be in place in time for the civil service and stock markets to return to work on Monday at 9. A seamless transition. Thursday has stuck as the traditional day although many European countries vote on a Sunday, on the basis that it encourages turnout.merely at clientco for the entertainment -
