MPS TO VOTE ON ELECTION THIS AFTERNOON

The British Prime Minister will face MPs this lunchtime – after asking them to back her plans for an early general election.

She’s expected to easily win the support of two-thirds of members in the Commons later – with Labour and the Lib Dems both welcoming a June vote.

But Theresa May’s ruled out facing the leaders of those parties in TV debates.

Home secretary Amber Rudd says she wants to meet voters face-to-face instead.
