Martin Vickers is interviewed by a reporter |
1am
THERE are some happy people at Grimsby Town Hall right now, but only the ones with blue rosettes.
With counting under way, it looks like the Conservatives are on course to hold Cleethorpes comfortably.
But they may also cause an upset by winning the Great Grimsby seat from Labour.
Martin Vickers, the sitting MP for Cleethorpes, has been at the count for the past hour.
He is giving cheerful interviews to the media.
Labour’s sitting Great Grimsby MP, Melanie Onn, has not yet arrived.
Red rosette wearing supporters are looking very glum.
The mood among supporters of Liberal-Democrats, Brexit and Green is best described as rueful.
The turn-out figures for the two constituencies have been announced - 54 per cent for Great Grimsby and 63.2 per cent for Cleethorpes.
