Mr Corbyn is due to visit Regent Street, before finishing at the pier later today.

This is the latest in a string of trips the Labour leader has made to the region – in May last year, he visited the James Paget University Hospital in Gorleston to discuss the nationwide NHS cyber attack.

He also met with Labour supporters on Lowestoft beach later that day.

In October, he visited Great Yarmouth to speak at a members event alongside MEP Alex Mayer and Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell.

It is not clear if he plans to visit any other towns or cities in the region today.
