9:55:30Now PlayingParliament was dissolved at one minute past midnight, and there are no longer any sitting MPs - meaning the fight for all 650 parliamentary seats, and the keys to Number 10, is well and truly under way.
We're expecting to hear from all of the major parties today, with a Keir Starmer speech first up.
The day started with the Tories going on the attack, aiming punches at Labour's "chaotic" economic policy and tax plans. Meanwhile, the row over whether Diane Abbott will stand for Labour rumbles on.
Today we're expecting to hear from:
🔴 Sir Keir Starmer will be launching Labour's campaign in Wales at a major event this morning, attended by many of the party's candidates, as well as shadow cabinet ministers and representatives elected to the Senedd;
🔴 Rishi Sunak will hit the campaign trail in the South East as he seeks to make up his party's huge poll deficit;
🔴 SNP leader John Swinney will be out meeting activists and talking to media this morning, before he faces First Minister's Questions in Holyrood at noon;
🔴 The Liberal Democrat leader, Sir Ed Davey, will be in Somerset highlighting his party's call for a mental health professional to work in every school, with data showing 336,886 children are on mental health waiting lists;
🔴 The Green Party will launch its general election campaign in Bristol this morning as it launches its bid to win more parliamentary seats;
🔴 Reform UK is launching its immigration policy at an event at lunchtime.
