There are more than 2,700 candidates vying for 533 seats in England out of the UK's total of 650.

Registered voters are able to indicate their choice on who should be their Member of Parliament until 10pm tonight.

Counting will then take place overnight, with the winners in each constituency declared in the early hours of Friday.

As a result, people will go to their polling stations amid heightened security.
