Norfolk's Police force said it is ready for a terrorist incident should one ever happen in the county.

As reported, BBC Radio Norfolk's Breakfast team was live from Norfolk Constabulary's control room at its Wymondham headquarters this morning.

Insp Paul Rush said how the force would respond to a random terror attack is "something we have practised".

"We are confident we know what it is we are trying to achieve," he said.

"With other attacks that have gone on, we do look at how we can learn lessons from other people and make sure we're in as best position as we can be, should it ever happen."

A school bonfire which was set alight four days before Guy Fawkes' Night has "taken away trust" in a village near Diss, organisers said.

Collections for the bonfire at Kenninghall Primary School had seen "perfect fodder" collected by volunteers from people who made donations for their waste to be taken away, Dianne Kemp from the school's PTA said.

"We'd just done our big collection on Sunday and on Wednesday someone was seen dumping their rubbish on top of it and setting it alight," Mrs Kemp said. "It's obvious what it was for - there were signs everywhere.

"Kenninghall is such a lovely village and I am genuinely shocked about this."

Mrs Kemp said coverage in the Diss Mercury, external had led to many donations from individuals and companies to build the bonfire back up.

"The old one was going to be good - this one won't be quite as big," she said.

"It's hard to protect our bonfire as we're surrounded by fields and, bar putting fences up, there's not much you can do.

"Things like this do take away trust."

Jon Holder will discover if his record attempt has been verified in December.

Henry Bolton accused a group of councillors who defected to the Tories of "political opportunism".

The number of people calling Norfolk Constabulary's control room has increased, police said.

BBC Radio Norfolk's Breakfast team was live from the force's control room at its Wymondham headquarters.

The control room receives both 999 and 101 calls.

Supt Malcolm Cooke said it had received 190,000 calls to the 101 number this year, 3% up on last year.

He said despite the increase in calls, the number of incidents the police are actually attending has stayed static.

"More people are ringing us to talk about their issues," he said.

"There's a genuine desire for people to talk to us and try to get our take on what help they might need."

He said members of the public were "very good" at self-selecting what is an emergency.

"We don't see a huge abuse of 999 in Norfolk and we're very grateful for that," he said.

The 10, from all over England, were accused obstructing the highway near a fracking site.

The leader of the UK Independence Party has accused the seven Great Yarmouth councillors who defected from his party to the Conservatives this week of being "political opportunists".

Henry Bolton, who was elected leader in September, was speaking during a visit to the town last night, which had been arranged before this week's defections.

"They moved over to the Tories because they felt that was what was in their own best interests," he said.

"The reason they gave was that they felt the Brexit job was done and they felt the Tories were the best party to take things forward - which is absolute tosh.

"The Conservatives promised to deliver Brexit, they have done absolutely nothing."

Monday's defection was the largest single switch so far of UKIP councillors to the Conservatives and it leaves the party with just five councillors in a town which was once considered a UKIP stronghold.

Mr Bolton addressed about 50 supporters from Norfolk and Suffolk last night.

He insisted that the party still had a future and a distinctive message.

There are major disruptions to train services through Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire after damage to overhead wires at Welwyn North.

There is also disruption on Virgin trains.

It's expected to last until 12:00.

Can you help shed light on the life of a Norfolk suffragette?

Norfolk Museums Service has nominated Caprina Fahey for a project which recognises ordinary women who did extraordinary things to win the vote for women, which gained its first legal recognition in 1918.

Caprina Fahey was an active campaigner for women's suffrage, joining the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) in 1908.

In 1909, she was arrested and imprisoned for a month, and the following year was sentenced to two weeks in jail for stone-throwing.

Caprina was WSPU organiser for the Middlesex Parliamentary Division in 1910, and in 1913 one of the "group captains" at the funeral of Emily Wilding Davison, who died after throwing herself in front of the King's horse at the Epsom Derby.

Museum staff, who've been researching Caprina Fahey's life, are appealing for people who may be related to her, or hold any memorabilia relating to her life, to get in touch.

This medal (pictured), which is in the Museum Service's collection may have been awarded in recognition of the prison sentence she served at Holloway Prison, and for the hunger strike she took part in.

It's inscribed "for valour" and dated 14 March 1914 and 21 May 1914.

It was donated by Caprina's second husband, Edward Knight, following her death.

• Caprina, who was born in Italy in 1883, died in Hainford, near Norwich in 1959
• She married Alfred Edward Fahey, and gave birth to Dennis Mountford Fahey in 1905
• Caprina sued Alfred for adultery and desertion and was awarded custody of Dennis
• Dennis Fahey died in Brighton, aged 35
• Caprina married Edward Knight, and they lived in Norfolk
• She's buried in Hainford

Caprina Fahey will feature in an exhibition next year, marking 100 years of Suffrage Pioneers.

Deputy county council leader Alison Thomas says it's an opportunity to highlight the work of Caprina.

They're appealing to the public for any information they have.
