Khaki election

英语百科

Khaki election

In Westminster systems of government, a khaki election is any national election which is heavily influenced by wartime or postwar sentiment. In the British general election of 1900, the Conservative Party government of Lord Salisbury was returned to office, defeating a disunited Liberal Party. The reason for this name is that the election was held in the midst of the Second Boer War, and "khaki" was the colour of the relatively new military uniform of the British army that had been universally adopted in that war.
