The Conservatives are doing their best to exploit divisions at the top of the Labour Party over Trident nuclear weapons, suggesting, not for the first time, that it shows the party is not fit to govern.

"It shows what a chaotic and divided team would be put in charge of the UK's Brexit negotiations if Jeremy Corbyn makes it to Downing Street on 8 June," the party says in a statement.

It also repeats claims that a Labour government would have to be propped up by the SNP, Liberal Democrats and Greens.

One new line - which is also being used in Tory Facebook ads - is that this "will happen if the Conservatives lose just six seats on June 8".

More than two million people have registered to vote in the month since Theresa May said she wanted to hold a snap general election on 8 June.

The highest number of registrations so far was on 18 April, the day the prime minister made her announcement, when just over 150,000 people applied.

The number of young people registering is the highest of any age group.

The deadline to register online through the official website is 23.59 GMT on Monday 22 May.

The latest official figures published in March, before the election was called, showed that 45.7 million people were registered to vote in a general election as of 1 December 2016.

The Electoral Commission have warned that approximately seven million people across Britain who are eligible to vote are not registered, including 30% of under 34s while only 28% of home movers in the past year have registered. Read more

UKIP in two years' time will be "bigger than it's ever been", the party's leader Paul Nuttall has told the Press Association.

Mr Nuttall was speaking in Dagenham, where he's been campaigning alongside UKIP's candidate there, Peter Harris.

Asked if UKIP will do better than at the 2015 general election, Mr Nuttall said: "We are not putting up as many candidates. We took the decision, the very honourable decision, to give Brexiteers a free ride... therefore we put country above party in this election.

"In effect it is a unique election because it is about Brexit."

Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said she remains committed to holding a second independence referendum - but added that it was not her priority in this election.

Speaking in Edinburgh, the SNP leader said: "There is an opportunity in this election to strengthen Scotland's hand in the Brexit negotiations, because Theresa May is not just pursuing Brexit, she's pursuing an extreme form of Brexit that will put thousands of Scottish jobs on the line.

"When we have clarity on the deal - and I am working on the timetable that Theresa May is talking about here - then Scotland should have a choice."

The Trident nuclear weapon is "the wrong priority", Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said.

Speaking on the campaign trail in Edinburgh, the SNP leader said: "At a time when we are being told there is not enough money to protect pensioners, the government seems able to find billions upon billions of pounds to renew Trident nuclear weapons."

Theresa May has said that she wants to put the divisions caused by Brexit "behind us" and "get on with the job of making a success of Brexit.

Speaking to party activists in west London this afternoon, Mrs May said: "I know that many people in this city in the referendum last year voted Remain and were disappointed with the outcome.

"I know that at times the referendum campaign was divisive. We can all remember the strength of feeling that was shown during the campaign.

"But I think now is the time to put the division behind us. Because in this country when we've had a vote we respect the result. So let's put the divisions of the past behind us and get on with the job of making a success of Brexit."

Lib Dem peer Lord Paddick has been on the BBC News Channel, and was asked if, with the party's focus on fighting Brexit, it is in danger of becoming a one issue party - or a "reverse UKIP".

Lord Paddick said it was difficult to talk about other issues without considering Brexit: "We're not going to be able to properly fund our health service, social care, our schools if we have a devasating impact of Brexit... All these policies are inextricably linked ... a hard Brexit is going to be incredibly damaging to our economy".

The party has unveiled an election poster today that fuses together an image of Mrs May with former UKIP leader Nigel Farage under the tag line "vote her, get him"..

More from the campaign trail: UKIP leader Paul Nuttall has said that immigration needs to be balanced in order to reduce pressure on public services and help communities.

Speaking during a campaign event in Essex, Mr Nuttall rejected a report from the Global Future Foundation, external which said that Britain needs net migration of more than 200,000 every year in order to avoid "catastrophic economic consequences".

The UKIP leader said: "They are completely wrong. What we need is a system of managed migration or balanced migration whereby we have one in, one out; because if we continue on the same road we're on....we will have 80 million by the middle of the century.

"It puts pressure on housing, on schools, on hospitals and actually it breaks up communities and turns communities upside down."

Jeremy Corbyn has been reiterating Labour's commitment to the Trident nuclear deterrent, following a disagreement between two senior members of the shadow cabinet yesterday.

Shadow Defence Secretary Nia Griffiths said her colleague Emily Thornberry, the shadow foreign secretary, was wrong to suggest that the party's support for Trident could be changed in a defence review were Labour to gain power.

Mr Corbyn had to repeat the Labour Party policy on Trident when questioned by reporters.

The Labour leader said the party's manifesto made it clear that it had "come to a decision and is committed to Trident".

Comedian and long-time Labour supporter Eddie Izzard has suggested he could become a politician in an interview with The Times Magazine, external.

He said: "I don't really want to do the politics, but I think I have certain attributes.

"A lot of people with decent values will not go into politics because they feel they are going to get pummelled."

The co-leader of the Green Party, Jonathan Bartley, has warned Britain's parties not to ignore the wishes and futures of young people.

Speaking at the launch of his party's youth manifesto this morning in London, Mr Bartley said: "A political party that fails to work with and listen to young people; ignores them in favour of older people; that thinks of the future only in terms of their tenure in office, not the lifetime of today's youth, is not a political party at all but a closed off clique."

Outlining policies to scrap university tuition fees, writing off student debt, providing affordable housing and paying those on internships "a living wage".

Mr Bartley said: "We can build a raft for young people negotiating the Brexit storm. We can make schools and universities a springboard for life and we can offer young people a better future."
