Britain’s deadlocked parliament concluded on Tuesday evening that a general election is the answer. Less clear is the question voters are supposed to be answering. Politicians hoping for direction on Brexit may once again be confounded, says peter_tl:
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Oct. 29 finally won parliamentary approval for an election that he hopes will break the deadlock over Brexit."It's time to unite the country and get Brexit done," Johnson told a meeting of Conservative lawmakers late on Oct. 29."A Labour government will be on your side, while Boris Johnson's Conservatives – who think they’re born to rule – will only look after the privileged few," Corbyn said.
Johnson’s Conservative party has been ahead of Labour by about 10 percentage points in polls carried out in October.
