British voters are voting Thursday in early general elections to choose their representatives in Parliament, at a time when opinion polls have shown a convergence in the election results aimed at ending the Brexit crisis.

Polling stations open their doors at seven in the morning until ten in the evening local time. The number of voters is more than forty million. This is the third election in Britain in less than five years.

On the eve of the elections, British Prime Minister and Conservative Chairman Boris Johnson pledged to "fight for every vote."

In an effort to spread his key message across the country, Johnson chose the phrase "Let's get a break free" making its way across a wall of shattered "obstacles."

On his part, his opponent, leader of the opposition Labor Party, Jeremy Corbin, described the elections on Thursday as "the most important in a generation."

"My message to all these voters who have not decided yet is that you can vote for hope," he said. "We'll put the money in your pockets because you deserve it. The richest and the big companies will pay that."

Brexit questions
The elections are clouded by questions about the fate of leaving the European Union. According to the latest opinion polls, the Labor Party narrowed the difference between it and the Conservative Party to nine percentage points.

The Conservative Party had maintained progress in the polls, but the final YouGov poll, released late Tuesday, expected them to have a simple majority.

The poll expected a majority of 28 seats in the 650-seat House of Commons, down from a comfortable majority of 68 seats that YouGov predicted on November 27.

A close outcome could again make Britain hostage to a suspended council in which the overwhelming majority bloc does not possess, and it can also lead to the postponement of Brexit again or even its abolition by a new referendum, and the outcome may also end Johnson's political career.

Polls do not expect Corbin to win the election, indicating that he will need support from the opposition to be the first Labor British prime minister since Gordon Brown in 2010.

The Liberal Democrats and the pro-European Scottish National Party are concerned with that support.

However, the Scottish party's support for the workers may be costly by accepting another referendum on Scottish independence.

The poll expected that the Scottish National Party would get 41 seats, an increase of 6 seats, while the Liberal Democrats would get 15 seats, an increase of 3 seats.
