Polling station chaos in London

Voting was under way across the UK in the biggest test of political opinion since the general election.

The elections will return the first nationwide verdict on Jeremy Corbyn since he stormed to victory with massive grass-roots support as Labour leader last September.

But many voters, including Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, who has been critical of Labour’s handling of the anti-Semitism controversy, were left unable to have their say amid chaos at polling stations in north London.
