Britons will head to the polls today for a snap general election which was called to break the country’s Brexit impasse. The ballot is expected to shape how, or whether, the United Kingdom finally quits the European Union almost three and a half years after the EU referendum. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party and Jeremy Corbyn’s main opposition Labour Party have presented radically different proposals for ending months of political deadlock over the issue. The electorate, also deeply divided over Brexit, will now have its say in a poll dubbed the “most important” for a generation.
