Britons don't see eye-to-eye on much these days, but on one thing they agree: they want a general election.

Labour supporters prefer an election before the end of the year and trying to resolve Brexit with a new parliament – but only just. The close polling shows that it's more divided over Brexit than other parties. Here's a look at the numbers.
