If however the Brexit agreement is ratified earlier, within that three month period, then the UK will be allowed to leave the EU earlier. Talks of a General Election are still rife and MPs will be voting in regards to holding a future General Election. If MPs agree to hold a General Election then it’s likely to take place on either 09 or 12 December 2019 and Parliament could be dissolved as soon as the end of this week.
