We went to Downing Street to ask its residents about the upcoming election – but not the one you think

The street in central London is often the focal point for political commentators and voters, being that number 10 is the home of the Prime Minister and number 11 is the home of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, as well as the centre for meetings and decisions which affect the country.

While Rishi Sunak and Jeremy Hunt campaign and ready themselves for the General Election on July 4, the residents of another Downing Street have been looking at the things that affect their lives and how that affects how they'll vote.

Downing Street in Halesowen is a quiet cul-de-sac located near Halesowen Town Football Club, Halesowen College and the town centre with a mix of young and older people, many of whom have heard the jokes about living on Downing Street and whether they've seen the Prime Minister.

On a hot Wednesday lunchtime, many of those living on the street were looking at what affected them and how they intended to vote next week in what is a new seat created from the former Halesowen and Rowley Regis seat, which was held by Conservative James Morris, and part of the Stourbridge constituency.

Danielle Hill said there were a number of issues that were important to her, with the 37-year-old sales assistant saying her main concerns were around the future for her children.

She said: "There's a few issues for me and I want to see change more for my children as I think we need somebody better running the country for my children's future because, at the minute, it's just in such a mess and it's quite worrying for the future.
