Nigel Farage visited King’s Lynn on Tuesday, spending time in the Tuesday Market Place where he met both supporters and critics during a short appearance.
The Reform UK leader was joined by local party figures and spoke about proposed changes to local government in Norfolk.
Farage criticised plans to split the county into new unitary councils, arguing the move could shift decision-making further away from communities like King’s Lynn.
His comments come as the government moves ahead with proposals to reorganise councils across Norfolk.
North West Norfolk MP James Wild responded by defending the Conservative position, saying his party was the only one putting forward a genuinely local plan.
The visit drew interest from passers-by in the town centre, reflecting the ongoing debate around how local services should be structured in the future.
