Who shall I vote for? (1900 UK Election edition)

Who should you vote for in 1900, the last election of the Victorian period. This year is dominated by the Boer War in South Africa, which although won two years later, raises painful questions for British Imperialism.

The Liberals are divided over Ireland and social reform - indeed a splinter group of Liberal Unionists are in coalition with the Unionists. The fledgling Labour party has only just been founded.
