UK general election 2024: What you need to know

The United Kingdom general election is just days away, and opinion polls suggest Britain is headed for its first change in government in 14 years. If the polls prove accurate, the opposition Labour Party under Keir Starmer could take power come July 4. This could mean a shift of priorities and policies from the right to the centre-left. CNA’s Arnold Gay explains what is at stake.

All while these illegal immigrants get housed up in 4 star hotels and given council house priority, Its frigging disgusting.

[@justinlee9107]

​@@SlanderMan.You have no idea what you're talking about. Some of the buildings they are housed in were 4 star hotels. They're not any more. They're refugee shelters providing basics. Go and see for yourself. But you won't of course, you'll just believe the bollocks.

"Don't keep telling me about the prime minister as if he was Moses" (6 times British MP George Galloway says: ‘I despise the prime minister) George Galloway responded to questions from a Sky News reporter about Rishi Sunak and his comments regarding the newly-elected MP, who dominated in the landslide Rochdale election victory.

Wow, this is actually quite good coverage.

[@rolandrothwell4840]

Actually there is disillusion with the 2 big parties. Many people are voting for smaller parties. The Liberal Democrats, Reform, and Greens will get large chunks of the national vote and seats so they shouldn't be ignored!

Time to change to a native PM .

Nothing will come to symbolise the outgoing Conservative Government more than the sight of Rishi Sunak being drowned in the rain of a thunderstorm as he announced the election and his speech drowned out by the sound of Labours 1997 election campaign anthem playing on a protesters loudspeaker.

[@bombheadgames9565]

If your undecided its simple. Vote for the party that when you google [party] russian money doesn't scare you to death!

[@8spores]

Sunak is delusional.
