Polls closing soon for UK election

From Morning Report, 6:23 am on 13 December 2019

We'll have the results from the election in England around dinnertime on Friday, after voters went to the polls overnight.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson called the general election - hoping to win more seats for his party so he can get his Brexit deal across the line.

The polls close in a few hours time.
