Nigel Farage undertook a gruelling Norfolk odyssey on Tuesday, to drum up support for Reform as its election campaign prepares to enter its final week.

The party is tipped by many to take control of County Hall once voters have gone to the polls next Thursday and Mr Farage and his entourage certainly met with many supporters during their tour of the county - as well as plenty of critics.

He started the day in King’s Lynn, where he strolled down the high street and spoke with shoppers.

While many told him they intended on voting for his party on May 7, he was also met by one woman who questioned his party’s stance on benefits.

Claire Clarke, a former teacher from Downham Market, told the MP that she had a 22-year-old autistic son who requires 24-hour care and said she was worried about Reform's proposed clamp down on benefits eligibility.
