The UK is holding its third general election in less than five years, which is crucial for shaping the country's future post-Brexit. Voting is open to British citizens and Commonwealth citizens in Britain over 18 who registered by November 26. Voters will elect 650 lawmakers to the House of Commons. The main parties are the Conservatives and Labour, with others like the Liberal Democrats, Green Party, and Brexit Party also participating.
