With more than half of the 650 seats declared, Keir Starmer will be the new prime minister as the Labour party secures a majority. Follow the final results and find out how your constituency voted.

The Labour party has won over 400 seats (out of 650) in the 2024 UK General Elections, and Keir Starmer is expected to replace Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister. The Conservatives, in power for the last fourteen years, have suffered a rout, losing over two-thirds of their seats. The SNP has collapsed in Scotland, mostly to Labour, and the Liberal Democrats have gained over sixty seats.

    Last I checked ~18:00BST

    Party     Seats    Votes       %
Lab        412   9,725,117   33.8
Con        121   6,824,610   23.7
Reform       5   4,103,727   14.3
Lib Dem     71   3,501,004   12.2
Green        4   1,941,220    6.8
Indep.       7     841,835    2.9
…

    I am personally glad that the next government is not going to be stuffed full with bigoted nationalists from Reform. I can’t help but marvel though at how wonky the system of voting is that let the Lib Dem’s get an order of magnitude more seats than Reform with 600k fewer votes. Reform got just under half Labour’s vote share and only slightly over 1% of their seats.

      FPP is absolutely awful. You need voting reform ASAP

      It’s a stupid system, but I don’t expect the party that got 412 seats on a 34% voteshare to reform it.
