Voters have their say after Labour overturn Conservative majority to take Selby and Ainsty.
By Chloe Laversuch & Phil Bodmer & Adam LaverAfter Labour's Keir Mather overturned a 20,000 Tory majority to become the new MP for Selby and Ainsty - and the youngest MP in the House of Commons - BBC News visited the market town at the centre of the constituency to gauge residents' reaction.
But, as Lorraine, who asked not to give her full name, added, the result here in North Yorkshire has "well and truly" sent a message to Westminster. For the past few weeks the office has been a hustling, bustling hive of activity, the door open as campaigners come and go. Turnout for the by-election was just 44.77%, well below the figure in the 2019 general election when nearly three-quarters of voters, 72%, had their say at the ballot box.
