Voters in proud but troubled UK town wonder whether their election choice will make difference (Video)

Politicians from both major political parties in the UK have promised change to voters in Hartlepool, a wind-whipped port town in northeast England.

For decades, Labour Party representatives said they would fight for working people, even as well-paid industrial jobs disappeared.

Later, Conservatives under then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson vowed to bring new money and opportunities on the back of Brexit.

But as British voters prepare to elect a new government on Thursday, Hartlepools many problems persist.
