General Election 2019: best dogs at polling stations
Voting day has brought out some very good boys

Everybody agrees that politics can be somewhat miserable at times, and general election campaigns can start to feel like a drag.

Voters have been uploading photos of their pooches all day, with #dogsatpollingstations trending on twitter by lunchtime.
