Candidate Count Binface waits for the result at Boris Johnson 's Uxbridge and South Ruislip constituency. Former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith held on to his seat in Chingford and Woodford Green . It was thought his seat was At Risk , but he won by just over 1,200 votes. Sharon Hodgson reacted after holding her Labour seat in Washington and Sunderland West.

Jeremy Corbyn , leader of the Labour Party , arrived at The Count in his Islington North constituency, which he held with a 26,000 majority. Mr Corbyn gave a speech in which he said the pressure "on those surrounding politicians is often very, very high indeed and the media intrusion in people's lives is very high indeed".

Labour's John Mcdonnell retained his seat at Hayes and Harlington. SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon was the centre of press attention at a counting centre in Glasgow.

We don't want to leave the EU'. " In Northern Ireland , the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) suffered a bruising night, losing two MPs including its Westminster leader Nigel Dodds who lost his North Belfast seat to Sinn Féin's John Finucane .
