The UK general election has officially launched, set to take place on the 12th December with the political battleground framed around a number of issues, but with many voters likely to be focusing on Brexit.

With Boris Johnson already having lost his majority, accusations and mud-slinging on all sides, and with the Brexit party complicating things further, this election outcome is proving tricky to predict.

The last few days has seen a number of resignations from both Labour the Conservatives , while the Liberal Democrats have formed a cross party remain alliance in the hope of appealing to the public.

In recent days, Boris Johnson has continued to attack Corbyn, accusing him of having deranged plans for nationalization while Johnson continues to repeat the simple message of promising to deliver Brexit

This general election is proving to the be the most divisive and in many ways the most important general election in recent years. While a number of crucial issues are being debated including the NHS and austerity , ultimately, as voters go to the polls Britain will likely be voting on Brexit.
