THE UK is set to go to the polls on December 12 after MPs backed Boris Johnson’s calls for a general election last night.

Boris Johnson saw off Labour and Lib Dem attempts to call the election early after an amendment for a December 9 poll was voted down.

The bill now goes to the House of Lords and if it passes, Brits are going to the ballot boxes.
