Great Yarmouth (UK Parliament Constituency)
Great Yarmouth is a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Its MP is Brandon Lewis, the current Secretary of State for Justice and Lord Chancellor, who has held the seat since the 2010 general election. He was previously the Chairman of the Conservative Party and Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. History The Parliamentary Borough of Great Yarmouth had been represented by 2 MPs since 1295 and was unaffected by the Great Reform Act of 1832. However, the borough was disenfranchised for corruption by the Reform Act 1867, when its voters were absorbed into the North Division of the Parliamentary County of Norfolk.

This abolished the Parliamentary Borough and replaced it with the County Constituency of Yarmo ...
