UK election race tightens as voting begins | DW News

People in the UK are heading to the polls in what's being called the most important general election in decades. It will determine when, how, or possibly even if the country leaves the European Union. Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Conservative party had looked set to be on track for an absolute majority. But more recent polls show Jeremy Corbyn's Labour party gaining ground, making the outcome difficult to call.

i believe Labour will lose but would have won if they stuck by their working-class roots and been in favour of brexit in the first place as Labour originally were

It is so hard to see Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage lie. And I don't get how people, that are ruled since 2010 by the
Tory party, seems to have never thought about that it might be the 'bad' condition (so many people seing) GB is in because of the Tories actions and
not the EU? I am from Germany and am wondering if somebody of the Brexit party voters or Boris Johnson fans can explain why the EU is that
bad for GB. I know it has it's problems but my problem is really that Farage and Johnson are just not true to the facts and by that destroying
willingly something our grandfathers and fathers have helped to build up and that we are still doing. That the EU is in the core something good that doesn't need destruction but maybe a little work over. Oh, and in case somebody is interested why I'm having a problem with the whole Brexit campaigne:

Originally I was researching for a reason why my ex-boss acted like he did. I found this
video on nacissism and it reminded me about all of the crazyness going
on in this world:



Especially after seeing John Oliver on Boris Johnson, which was really an interesting analysis:

What will happen if Jeremy Corbyn wins?

[LibertyFrihet]

Hello Norway and Denmark cheer for British Independence, Sweden do not cheer so much.

[lifefamilyfitnessboxing]

My partner and I are not voting. We are seriously confused and have lost faith in British politics

[petje]

And if the remainers win ... then try for 6 years to boycot. And then demanding new votings .

[Harlockday]

Only choice to stay in EU is to vote Liberal Democrats. If the English vote for Boris they deserve everything they get !
