It has only happened once since the war,Labour losing power in 1970 then returning,albeit just, in 1974.
However the only person who has in fact failed to win a comfortable majority in an election that should have been a walkover to do so, is David Cameron in 2010, with in total disarray the Labour govt; 13 years in power and a disastrous elecrion campaign too for them.
Yet Cameron failed to even come close to an overall majority.

new labour created an army of over 5 million people who would never work abd would always be on benefits who would always vote labour. they also moved some boundaries. its also important to note they had a huge majority going into those elections.....however this time around whilst they should be winning they will probably end up losing. today was a MAJOR disaster for milibland. whereas the tories have done nothing for the working classes too
