British voters will go to the polls again on December 12, to vote in the country’s third general election in five years. Here's our guide to what many say will be the most significant U.K. election in a generation
All British and Irish citizens resident in the U.K. and over the age of 18 can vote. Citizens of the Commonwealth countries — including Australia, Canada, India and Kenya — who have the right to live in the U.K. are also eligible. U.K. citizens who have moved abroad can vote for 15 years after they have left the country.
After the initial campaign skirmishes, the first main event will be the publication of the parties' manifestos setting out their proposed programs for government.
