Who lost their seats in the 2019 election?

The 2019 election was a crushing defeat for Labour as they lost 59 seats and the red wall crumbled around them during the party's greatest loss in 40 years.

The Lib Dems lost one seat and the DUP lost two, as the Tories spent the night painting the political map blue.

Dennis Skinner lost his seat in Bolsover that had been in his hands since 1970. The Labour candidate lost by 5,299 votes to the Tories.

Tony Blair's former safe seat of Sedgefield was snatched by the Tories with a majority of more than 4,000.

Who won the most seats in the General Election?

The Tories have won a majority in the General Election leaving them holding 365 seats having secured 43.6 per cent of the vote. They now hold 162 more seats than Labour.

Labour lost a whopping 59 seats - and Jeremy Corbyn has said he will not lead the party into the next election, following fallout over the weekend as his own MPs turn on him.

The last time the Tories had such a staggering majority was when Margaret Thatcher was re-elected in 1987.

Who are the new 109 Tory MPs?

The Tories successfully gained a staggering majority - holding 162 more seats than Labour and welcoming 109 new blue faces to the commons benches.

The fall of the Red Wall

A total of 27 Labour-held seats in constituencies which have loyally voted Labour for decades fell overnight - as an astounding Tory wave swept the northern heartlands of England.

Areas which have formed the backbone of Labour support for most of the last century such as Bishop Auckland, Wrexham, Burnley and Workington all turned blue on a night which has redrawn the political map of England.

As decades of political habits were ripped apart in a momentous election, Wrexham, in a heartland of Labour voters, turned blue after 84 years.

The Conservatives also gained Leigh in Greater Manchester - a seat held by Labour for almost 100 years.

Bolton North East, Bury North, Bury South and Heywood and Middleton were all former Labour holds which have now been painted blue.

Which big names lost their seats in the 2019 election?

Despite the success of BoJo's party - not all MPs will be smiling as they woke up on the morning after election night.

Conservative, Labour and Lib Dems all lost notable seats in the general election - including Jo Swinson and Zac Goldsmith's seats.

Jo Swinson

Just five months after becoming the leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jo Swinson lost her seat in East Dunbartonshire.

Swinson lost to the SNP by 149 votes overnight - which is a massive blow to the Lib Dems, who were savaged throughout the campaign for their leader's below-par performances.

Nicola Sturgeon, the SNP leader, was seen celebrating as Swinson's seat was taken by her party.

Zac Goldsmith

6

Former Tory mayoral candidate Zac Goldsmith lost to the Lib Dems in Richmond Park, South West London.

The keen Brexiteer was ousted by Sarah Olney, who gained a convincing margin of 53.1 per cent against Goldsmith.

Other major losses include Chuka Umunna, who previously ran as a Labour candidate but changed to Lib Dem, who lost in the Cities of London and Westminister to the Tories.

Shadow Brexit minister Jenny Chapman lost her Labour seat in Darlington to the Tories - adding to the blunder by Corbyn's party.

Former Labour shadow chancellor and independent Chris Leslie lost to Labour in Nottingham East in the election.

Laura Pidcock, the shadow Secretary of State for Employment Rights also lost to the Tories in her constituency of North West Durham.

Meanwhile, Mr Corbyn said he will step down as Labour boss before the next election after failing to win a second poll in a row.

The "Workington Man" was identified by pollsters at the start of the election campaign as the key for victory for the Tories.

Focus groups showed how badly Corbyn and his muddled stance on Brexit, weakness on national security and anti-Semitism went down with northern voters.

And it saw the Tories romp home by more than 4,000 votes, in a seat that Labour had held for 98 years.
