UK polls: Britain on course for hung Parliament


Polling experts are wary of calling the outcome of Britain's election although Prime Minister Theresa May remains the favourite over Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

The ruling Conservatives were predicted to fall from 330 to 314 seats, short of an overall majority in the 650-seat House of Commons, after a troubled campaign overshadowed by two deadly terror attacks.
