Before the 2010 election, 150 MPs announced they would stand down, mainly from the Labour party.

In power for 13 years, Labour MPs knew their days in office could be numbered.

That is correct although a reason for a good number was that was the time of the MPs expenses scandal too
Which saw a lot of MPs resigning over that serious issue.
