Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May leaves Downing Street in London, Britain March 1, 2017.
UK Prime Minister Theresa May has announced plans to call a snap general election on June 8.
She said Britain needed certainty, stability and strong leadership following the EU referendum.
Explaining the decision, May said: “The country is coming together but Westminster is not.”
Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn said his Labour Party wanted the election, calling it a chance to get a government that puts “the majority first”.
There will be a vote in the House of Commons on Wednesday to approve the election plan – the prime minister needs two thirds of MPs to vote in favour to hold a vote before the next scheduled election date of 2020.
Explaining her change of heart on an early election, May said: “I have concluded the only way to guarantee certainty and security for years ahead is to hold this election.” (BBC)
