British MPs reject PM’s bid for December 12 election
British lawmakers reject an attempt by Prime Minister Boris Johnson to hold an early general election on December 12, as he seeks to break the political deadlock over Brexit.
A total of 299 MPs vote in support of his proposal, with 70 against, but he does not secure the backing of the two-thirds of the 650 MPs required by law to pass the motion.
