Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has been in Derbyshire this morning as part of the party's election campaign.
He stepped into the ring at the Bolsover Boxing Club earlier and said they had targeted towns like Bolsover because residents "voted so heavily for Brexit" and believes they can win Labour votes in the town.
He said five million Labour voters who voted to leave had been "abandoned by their party" so The Brexit Party would try to show they were a "much better bet".
Mr Farage, who is not standing in the election but is supporting his party candidates, headed to Nottinghamshire this afternoon where they are also targeting Mansfield and Sutton-in-Ashfield.
Lib Dems launched their campaign today in London with leader Jo Swinson saying they were "the only party standing up to stop Brexit and build a brighter future for the UK".
While Jeremy Corbyn pledged Labour would "get Brexit sorted" within six months of winning power so the country can "move on."
Boris Johnson said the Conservatives had "achieved something people thought we really couldn't do - get a great new deal on Brexit from EU". He added another referendum would be a "disastrous, clamorous" waste of time.
Candidates wishing to stand in the election have until 14 November to submit nomination papers.

Police are investigating after a Conservative HQ was covered in graffiti last night.
It is believed the Mid Derbyshire and Derby office in Spondon was attacked some point between 18:00 on Monday and 10:00 on Tuesday.
Chris Poulter, Conservative leader of Derby City Council and a Spondon councillor said: "In the current political climate public awareness and sentiments have been heightened, but this is not an appropriate way to express their views.
"It is symptomatic of the type of behaviour that causes serious concerns for the safety and wellbeing of politicians and their staff."
Police said inquiries are ongoing.

A dad, whose son found a dead hedgehog in a Derby park, said he believes it was deliberately killed.
Ben Broadhurst said his four-year-old son found the animal while playing with his brothers in Stenson Fields on 27 October.
He said it had a thick strap tied tightly around its middle that "you could tell" hadn't happened by accident.
"I went to untie it but it was double knotted around its legs," he said.
On making the discovery his son burst into tears and repeatedly told his dad "it's not fair", he said.
Mr Broadhurst said he hasn't reported his son's finding to the police but, as part of the local neighbourhood watch group, he said he's speaking to other residents.
A note inside the case said it stopped the shot injuring a Derbyshire-born soldier.
