Hello I'm James Reynolds. Welcome to the documentary from the BBC World Service.

In BBC OS conversations we bring people together to share their experiences and this time

it's conversations with voters in Britain and France.

Both countries have voted for political change in recent days

and we've travelled to towns and cities across the UK

to try to get a sense of what life is like for the people there.

We also bring together young people in France where a major talking point is immigration.

Mass immigration is just not a thing at all like it's just that's a

thing for you in what way is it impacting you as a person for Nando I know we're

not voting only for ourselves my future actually it's our future of friends. Welcome to Sunny Worthing!

Come on down and see what we've got to offer here in Sunny Worthing in West

Sussex by the sea and God save the King!

I wish it had been sunny.

But that was the greeting our team received

from the traditional town crier

in the English south coast town of Worthing.

Town Criers in Britain can be traced back hundreds of years.

They were, I guess you could say the news readers of their day.

They're welcome to have another go if they want,

and they share important information on the street.

On the other hand I got a nice sheltered window seats and table in a cozy restaurant on the

end of the pier which juts right out into the English channel just as well
