The Labour Party has won a landslide majority in the 2024 general election.
The party is set to take 412 seats with a majority of 174, with one result yet to
be declared.
It is the worst Conservative result in terms of seats in history, with the party
forecast to win as few as 122. The Liberal Democrats have their highest tally
since 1923, taking 71 seats.
The SNP is forecast to finish with 10 seats. Reform UK have five and Plaid
Cymru and the Green Party have four each.
Some 23 seats were won by other parties, all in Northern Ireland, and
independent candidates.
The biggest gap on record has emerged between the share of the vote won
nationally by parties and the number of seats they have gained.

Vote share
Labour gained over 200 seats but their vote share increased by less than two
percentage points to 34%.
The Conservatives saw their vote share plummet by 20 points to 24% and the
party lost 251 seats.
Reform are in third place by share of the vote on 14% but they found it
difficult to convert votes into seats. The party has returned five MPs, including
party leader Nigel Farage in Clacton.
By contrast, the Liberal Democrats’ 12% vote share translated into 71 seats.
The Greens recorded their best ever general election performance, winning
four seats and seven per cent of the vote.
