General Election 2024: What does a Labour landslide mean for country

Labour’s candidates in Herefordshire have given their views on what the party’s landslide election victory in the country means.

Joe Emmett, in the running for Hereford & South Herefordshire, said an incoming Labour government will be “a chance to for better services – the NHS, dentists, more green jobs in this area”.

“Labour will start to repair the damage,” he said.

Labour’s North Herefordshire candidate Jon Browning said: “I hope it will mean a new type of politics. This has been such a different and interesting election, and I’ve been told more young people have voted.

“I hope more people will engage more in politics.”
