May to suspend election campaigning after Manchester blast

May to suspend election campaigning after Manchester blast

LONDON: British Prime Minister Theresa May´s Conservatives will suspend campaigning for a national election on June 8 after at least 19 people died in Manchester in what police believe was a terrorist attack, broadcaster Sky
News reported on Tuesday.
"A Tory (Conservative) source speaking to the Press Association (news agency) said that the Prime Minister´s general election campaign was being suspended," Sky News said.
Opinion polls in recent days had shown a sharp narrowing of the Conservatives´ large lead over the opposition  Labour Party, though May remained on track to win re-election.
