Our coverage will start from 7pm with our live blog on portsmouth.co.uk, which will include more information on the candidates and seats plus the result of the exit poll at 10pm.

Our reporters will be interviewing those standing in our constituencies and getting the general feeling from the political parties.

We will bring you the results as they are announced, both through social media and on our website. We will then have interviews with each of the winning candidates.
