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.

Please only leave your home if absolutely necessary. Road conditions are very poor with large snow drifts blocking minor routes. If you must travel ensure you are prepared to recover your vehicle from drifts and are suitably clothed for the weather. – at East, England

Not everyone is Christian. But lots of people listen when the church says something like this. Well done for taking a stance.
We urge the Diocese of Norwich to go further, commit to net-zero before 2050!

Electric vehicles aren’t the solution, we need fewer cars full stop, but they are part of decarbonisation. Having no charging points for miles around means people won’t choose EVs. It also locks EV drivers out of visiting or making pit-stops in the town.

Our rebel Robert is sending a letter to the small independent businesses in Downham Market where he lives and works. He said “no business is perfect, but small businesses are struggling due to the pandemic, so I wanted us to show some support.” #allforclimate
