Liz Truss has just lost her seat! Yes!

Lizz Truss showed her true colours almost doing a no show and then leaving without giving a dignified speech.

Thoughts are with Nick Ferrari and Laura Kuenssberg at this difficult time.

The Tories have "LETTUCE DOWN". HOORAY!

Poor Nick. Its gonna take him a while to recover from this. 😅

Time for Nick to go too. 😂🎉

Sunak holding his seat is hilarious, now he can't swan off to California like he wanted. I wonder how much money Reform spent campaigning, to have less seats than most cars.

I’m amazed that the Tories have held on to as many seats as they have. They don’t deserve to be the opposition.

Soggy Sunak can now spend more time with his working class friends.

Cry me a river Nick 😂😂😂😂😂 I'm sure he's devastated but the country isn't

2 years ago we had Conservative government and a Queen. Now we have a Labour government and a King. I've never seen change like that in my lifetime.

Andrew’s pulled an all-nighter

Tax the rich…problem solved…

I'm happy now. I just hope that Labour at least have integrity and professionalism. We need some sensible political decisions.

I was recovering from operation, just because I was self employed, universal credit showed no support, had to borrow money an recover, never vote Conservative. I'm sure labour would have more care for our country's residents

Stop saying it’s the impossible it’s absolutely not!

If you look at Farrages EU pairlament record he will not be in much..

Toasted Tories!

Congratulations UK from an ex pat in Portugal.. well done

I'm really torn, really, really torn. What was better? Rees-Mogg, Truss, Hands, Gullis, Baker or any of the other morons losing their seats... ...or Nick Ferrari not being able to be obviously servile to CCHQ or fawn over Reform UK.

Immigration is simple to fix..points based system and process applications quickly. If you want less immigration time for British citizens to get off their high horse and do the jobs they deem beneath them.

Why is it that Labor (as always) are charged with fixing more than a decade of failures by the Torries in its first term? Same thing happens in Australia - 14 years of the conservatives and the media had their magnifying glasses out from day one looking for every that could criticise.

Farage can’t just speak up in Parliament without authority granted to him from the Speaker. He can be loud & crass as much as he likes but he hasn’t got the privileges that the EU parliament gives its representatives

This is the politics of rejection. Voters rejected Corbin, now we have rejected the combined Tory decay of the UK. Democracy would be healthier if it were more about positives. Labour need to prove their worth quickly.

“The impossible” means barely increasing Labour’s vote share over Corbyn and waiting for the Tories to destroy themselves? I’m not sure that was impossible. Or even difficult.

From a Scottish perspective ... the perverse reality is that this result will almost assure Scotland of Indy as Scots will quickly find that a change in Westminster will mean little or no difference to their lives for many many reasons and that as the UK continues it's decline they will see Indy as the only alternative.

Thankfuly we now have respectable people representing us on the world stage again.

Ferrari is absolutely gutted

Funny that Andrew Marr cannot even mention Reform until directly asked and then just trash talk him.

Finally, we can put our vital services first! Sooo happy these Tories are gone

I hope the new labour prime minister will end homelessness once and for all before the winter comes in a few months time

Now….. it gets worse

It is my 63rd birthday anniversary today. The best present in 63 years! Stayed up all night unwrapping 'presents' as each declaration was made. I was absolutely spoilt for choice as to the best one but Rees-Mugged continuing to deny reality was up there with Truss debagging. Oh joy of joys.

NF sits there all jolly . He’s been one of those people most responsible for supporting a truly awful party and government.

Should have watched Channel Four 4️⃣ better than any one 1️⃣.This Nic man is so bad.Shame on him Lbc needs to get rid of him.

Labour wins a land slide with the lowest turnout in a century. 😂

Nick Ferrari is having an absolute meltdown 😂😂😂

Will Farage spend his weekends in Clacton?

BRITAIN IS MAD.

Poor old Nick …. Old folks home beckons

Ppl actually voted in Farage, Tice and re-elected Anderson! Ppl are so narrow minded

Farage helped. He split the right. Long May it continue.

Well done to Labour 👏👏👏

Great that the tories are out, but Starmer has the radiance of a cold bag of chips

Nick needs to learn to breath through his nose...

If as suggested Starmer stays out of Europe in the current fashion because he is scared of Reform he doesn't deserve to be Prime Minister. His whole position rests on growth funding what he wants to do rather than raise taxes. How is that achieved without any meaningful change in how we trade with others...The phrase stop worrying about how you will lose your job, start doing your job applies...

'Lots of changes' but nothing will change for the average voter.

There will be a honeymoon then reality will set in.

FYI nothing will change

Farage +4 is just a noise in a 650 seat Parliament.

Is Nick alright? His breathing is audible even when Andrew is speaking.

Feeling so emotional they have won and that life will improve for the most vulnerable and poorest

Sir Keir? Nick has changed his tune 😂

Top priority must be to get the NHS waiting lists down across the UK. But I’m not sure how they’re going to do that. It’s not just money that’s in short supply - staff and infrastructure sadly lacking too. I’m really not convinced that Labour will sort this within their 5 year term 🤔

Very disrespectful to the other candidates

He did it therefore it was not impossible.

Very interesting points Marr has made here. It could all be very different in five years time.

_Liz was heard saying to her colleagues as the declaration of her loss confirmed before exiting "Lettuce Leaf."_

Can we actually get this right./ Kabout didnt win a landslide - they got pretty much the same % of the vote as last time. The Tories LOST a landslide. yes, the effect is the same - but the truth needs facing or it will all go back to the Tories next time.

Ok ok Clacton 😂

Nick Bacon should go with Tories 😂

34% of the vote.

It was a vote against the tories, not a vote for labour. If nothing, this election has proved yet again how bankrupt our electoral system is. That the FibDems have got 72 seats and Reform has 1 is utterly ridiculous given the number of votes. Not that I like either party, but it shows just how ridiculous it all is.

HSBC almost doubled its annual profits last year to $31.4 billion (£26.9 billion) and was the top dividend-payer among UK banks, distributing £8.4 billion to investors. Lloyds Banking Group reported significant profits - their annual profits were bolstered by the Bank of England’s rate hikes which crippled many home owners. Barclays, NatWest, and Standard Chartered - along with HSBC and Lloyds, collectively posted pre-tax profits of around £37.4 billion, surpassing pre-financial crisis highs. The banks conveniently forgot to also increase the rates on savings accounts. How apt! Shell achieved record profits, driven by high energy prices and increased demand for fossil fuels in the aftermath of the pandemic and amid geopolitical tensions. Similar to Shell, BP’s profits surged due to elevated oil and gas prices. Most struggled to pay their heating bill during winter. There is one majority who have become obviously poorer and a minority who have become evidently richer. I am no economist, but I know where I’d like this new government to start trying to recover money to boost the economy first!

He`s not done anything. Tories have just lost all support.

Poor ferari lol

If UK wants to return to EU, the € remains only trading currency , UK have to drop the £ sterling. If not UK maintains the £ and trade directly to the benefit of the UK with all trading blocks. UK can’t maintain both currency it is plain financial corruption.

Nick’s been left red in the face.

They voted for the tories to lose, just to end up with 5 more years of tory 😂😂

Beware .Labour's policies on immigration will change every town and villages around Britain they will be unrecognizable. But that's what you voted for, don't moan when your school's are ruined ,your services stretched more than ever ,your council tax through the roof. But never mind you voted for it , don't moan .you wanted change. Wave bye bye to your culture and values .

I hope people are going to enjoy those tax hikes because they are coming. And it will fall upon the middle classes. It’s what you voted for remember that. And when nothing improves who you going to blame? What we are going to witness is more of the same just worse. I just hope all those at LBC don’t lose possession of their critical facilities. After this period of Labour government people will realise the two main parties are dead and maybe then we can get what we desperately need.

It’s as rigged as they come

So the rich people leave and then they take the middles class money ? Is that where we're at

Get England Back in Europa

Farage will do what he always does. Shouting like a heckler in the back of the pub while taking full pay.

The Tories committed suicide. At least half of Tory voters were NEVER going to vote for an Indian PM, however rich he is. They either didn't vote, or voted Reform. Sunak did NOTHING to convince them that he was seriously concerned about immigration. NOT ONE PLANE LOAD left for Rwanda. He had plenty of time but he didn't want to do it. Expect a HUGE swing to the right.

All he's had to do is sit back and wait keep his mouth shut.

Farage will get kicked out of parliament, for the day, when he starts spouting off.

As far as the migration problem UK needs to negotiate a trade agreement with African Union (AU) ; Bring work to the people. The resources African offers will be a benefit to be negotiated with AU to bear in mind. Factories will offer opportunities for jobs to workers in AU and trade benefits and protection will be to benefit to industries to operate in the AU…a win win for all.

Congrats Labour!

Two Tory supporters and brexiteers changing the side, just look them up 5 years ago

Oh Nick a true tory gi cry in your wine

MUPPET

The conservative campaign was a campaign for a loss. Purposefully.

Ready for10x more boats

Absolutely nothing will change other than who we blame

JUST LET US SCOTS GET BACK INTO THE EU

In power an hr and already making excuses about changing what has been done the past 14 years or so. You should have been careful what you wished for folks

Clowns in the press tresting a party with 4 seats as if tbey were kingmakers

Majorities are like Ming. You need to be careful with them.

Sunak was always going to go to California in July... he deliberately lost.

Don't expect much from Labour, Keir isn't a Gordon Brown

Tories have handed the Baton as usual more failures to follow😢

Nick is just scared his puppet masters will have to pay a higher tax rate inline with the rest of us 😂😂 and I hope they do !

Now Starmer's slithered his way in, l don't like it, but l accept and respect the Nation's decision. Let's see if Labour accepts and respects the Nation's decision over Brexit - somehow l think not, but we will see. World War 3 has just taken a huge leap forward in my honest opinion.

"moving back to the single market and customs union....". There are no such options for a third country like UK is. As an EU member you are in the single market and customs union. Three EFTA members and 27 EU members and EU itself are in the EEA the European Economic Agreement that is the single market of today. The options for single market access are: 1. Applying to join EU. Since UK is a former member Article 50.5 of the treaty of EU applies and it says: "Any country that has withdrawn from the EU may apply to rejoin. It would be required to go through the accession procedure." 2. Apply to join EFTA ( Norway and Iceland will block it). Neither the EU, nor its current 27 member States, are members of EFTA. After Brexit, the UK, not being a member of EFTA, and not anymore an EU member, could not be an EEA member and could not be a candidate to become one. Article 126 of the EEA states that the Agreement shall apply to the territories which the Treaty establishing the EEC (today the EU) is applied and to the territories of Iceland, the Principality of Liechtenstein and the Kingdom of Norway . These three States are members of EFTA and, in accordance with articles 108 of the EEA Agreement, have established the EFTA Surveillance Authority and the EFTA Court. Both these institutions are only competent for these three States. Their role is to ensure the fulfillment by the EEA EFTA States of their obligations under the EEA Agreement. They are not competent for Switzerland, despite this country being a member of EFTA. UK as a third country cannot establish these institutions. Procedurally, in order to become a member of the EEA the UK would first have to present its candidacy and negotiate and conclude an accession agreement to become an EFTA member according to article 56 of the Convention establishing the EFTA. This is because the EEA cannot apply to non EU member States, with the exception of Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, precisely because they are members of EFTA according to article 126 of the EEA. Thus, the UK will have to negotiate an accession treaty to EFTA with the four members of this organisation: Switzerland and the three EEA EFTA members. Once becoming an EFTA member, the UK will then have to negotiate an EEA accession treaty with the 31 entities which are members of the EEA: the EU, its 27 member States and the three EEA EFTA members. The Parties could agree to proceed to both negotiations at the same time.

The Israeli lobby has it's prime minister.

It's a sad day for Anyone who has worked hard to get on in life and NOT procrastinate .

Reform: 4 million votes. 4 seats LibDem: 3.4 million votes. 70 plus seats Seems fair

Starmer has notdone the impossible but tories have given power Away after 5 years of not fullfiling what the voters put themthere to do.
