  • Current Seat distribution of the UK election (only 5 seats left to count)

    Labour get a supermajority but it doesnt almost eliminate the tories like some polls predicted (my beatifull 0 seat tory poll kitty-birthday-sad )

    Labour has lost four seats to pro-Gaza independent candidates and been run close by several others, as the impact of the Middle East crisis dented an otherwise jubilant night for Keir Starmer’s party.

    Jonathan Ashworth, the party’s shadow Cabinet Office minister, was one of the highest profile political casualties of the rise in support for pro-Palestinian candidates in urban areas with high Muslim populations.

    Ashworth lost his Leicester South seat to the independent Shockat Adam, who said: “This is for Gaza,” after winning by just under 1,000 votes.

    Jeremy Corbyn re-elected in Islington North after expulsion from Labour

    In his victory speech, Corbyn said he had fought a “positive campaign”. The political system must produce answers for social problems, he said, adding that demonising asylum seekers was not the answer. He said he was proud of his constituency for standing up for a “kinder, gentler, more inclusive politics”.
