The UK is voting today in a pivotal general election with Keir Starmer's Labour Party expected to end the Conservative reign led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Opinion polls forecast a Labour landslide, marking a potential shift from 14 years of Conservative rule marred by economic instability. Sunak, in a last-ditch appeal, warned against a Labour "supermajority" and its potential for higher taxes, while Starmer urged voters to embrace change. With polling stations open from 7 AM to 10 PM, the election could significantly reshape British politics.
