Isle of Sheppey residents feel 'abandoned' ahead of election

People on the Isle of Sheppey have been telling the BBC about their priorities for the upcoming general election and what they want to see in their next MP.

The island makes up part of the Sittingbourne and Sheppey constituency which has been held by the Conservative Party since 2010.

This year, the constituency will keep the same name but have its area reduced by the Faversham and Mid Kent constituency.
