Have your say! 🗣️

YouGov modelling suggests the following results if a general election were to happen tomorrow. This has limitations. It doesn’t account for Bagge standing, and assumes a Reform UK candidate will stand which isn’t confirmed. Downhamweb’s opinion: it’s still all to play for.

Election on 4th July just announced. Help us to shape the questions we will put to local candidates by submitting your thoughts in our 1 questions form. forms.gle/pPMwSPERzjCLHa…

Reminder that the General Election is coming up on 4th July! 🗳️ Register to vote, it only takes a few minutes: gov.uk/register-to-vo…

Polling released today suggests Truss majority could go down from 50.9% to 3.4%. Keep an eye out for posts from us next week detailing candidates responses to four questions we’ve put to them. Still waiting for answers from some candidates!

It's General Election time! Here at downhamweb we've asked candidates in our area four key questions on topics that matter to you. Over the coming days we will post each topic so you can see what the candidates have to say. First up is the NHS. downhamweb.co.uk/nhs-ge2024/ #GE2024

Last but definitely not least on our series of questions to candidates seeking our votes, the increasing urgency of climate change and the state of our environment. Read what the candidates had to say here: downhamweb.co.uk/pollution-ge20… #SouthWestNorfolk #GE2024

I’m in King’s Lynn reporting for the BBC this general election. Verification is still underway for NW Norfolk and SW Norfolk. I’ll bring you live updates throughout the night.   UEA Journalism

The nations eyes are on one Norfolk constituency being counted in King’s Lynn tonight.    Former PM Liz Truss is hoping to hold onto her seat in SW Norfolk; a seat she has held since 2010.    NW Norfolk is also being counted here. It’s been held by the Tories since 2001.

South West Norfolk turns red. Congratulations to Terry Jermy for Labour. Liz Truss is out, down 43.4%.
