UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has called a snap general election for July 4.
Prime Minister Sunak was required to hold a vote by January 2025, and had long resisted calls to be specific about his plans.
A fall in inflation rates, announced on Wednesday provided the backdrop for the announcement, which was made outside Downing Street, London in the rain.
The decision fires the starting gun on a six-week campaign that, currently, is almost universally expected to conclude in the demise of Mr. Sunak's Conservative government.
