The British parliament dissolved on Thursday ahead of a July 4 general election, which looks set to bring Labour to power after 14 years of Conservative rule.

Five weeks of campaigning officially began as 650 seats of members of parliament became vacant at one minute past midnight (2301 GMT) in line with the electoral schedule.
