Milton Keynes is home to two key marginal seats which will be crucial for both the Conservatives and Labour in any upcoming general election, which Mr Johnson wants to hold on Thursday 12th December.

However, the Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn has not committed to the date, saying he wants the threat of a no-deal Brexit to be taken off the table first.
