IN PICTURES: Foyle Westminster election 2024 in Derry

The polls have closed in the Westminster election and we should know in a few hours who will represent Foyle and the rest of the north, and who the electorate across the water have decided will form the next British government.

Counting in the Foyle election is due to get under way overnight in Magherafelt with results expected across the north and in Britain from the early hours of Friday.
