All the London constituency outcomes in a list
DAVE HILL
There are 73 parliamentary constituencies in London and at the last general election, in 2017, Labour won 49 of them, the Conservatives 21 and the Liberal Democrats 3. As voting began for this years national poll, there looked to be a chance of around a dozen of those changing hands, though it seemed more likely to be just a handful. Or maybe even none.
In the event, just four have changed hands. The Conservatives have gained two seats: Kensington from Labour and Carshalton & Wallington from the Liberal Democrats. Labour have gained Putney from the Conservatives. And the Liberal Democrats have gained Richmond Park from the Conservatives.
In other words, the Tories have gained two and lost two, and both Labour and the Lib Dems have gained one and lost one, meaning all three parties have ended up with exactly the same number of seats as two years ago. So the final tally is again Labour 49, Conservatives 21 and Lib Dems 3.
And while it a case of as you were in London, the Conservatives, led by former London Mayor Boris Johnson, have won a clear general election victory by making big gains in other parts of the country. Once again, the capital is different. Here are all 73 London results:
*****
BARKING Labour hold. Back in 2010, Margaret Hodge faced and defeated a challenge from British National Party leader Nick Griffin. Her seat has been safe ever since and she won with ease, despite a 6.6 per cent vote share reduction.
BATTERSEA Labour hold. A surprise winner in 2017, Marsha de Cordova held her ground.
BECKENHAM Conservative hold. Bob Stewart lost 5.4 per cent of his vote share in this Outer London seat.
BERMONDSEY & OLD SOUTHWARK Labour hold. As you were for Corbynsceptic Neil Coyle, dashing Lib Dem comeback hopes.
BETHNAL GREEN & BOW Labour hold. Rushanara Alis vote share was a massive 72.7 per cent.
BEXLEYHEATH & CRAYFORD Conservative hold. Easy win for David Evennett, who slightly strengthened his position.
BRENT CENTRAL Labour hold. Corbyn loyalist Dawn Butler took a 64.7 per cent vote share, though that was 8.4 per cent down on 2017.
BRENT NORTH Labour hold. Barry Gardiner got more than half the votes, but lost 11.1 per cent of the share compared with two years ago.
BRENTFORD & ISLEWORTH Labour hold. A drop of 7.2 per cent for Ruth Cadbury, but her seat remains well short of reverting to being the marginal it was until quite recently.
BROMLEY & CHISLEHURST Conservative hold. Moderate Bob Neill comfortably maintained his majority.
CAMBERWELL & PECKHAM Labour hold. Harriet Harman lost a little ground, but still got more than seven votes out of ten.
CARSHALTON & WALLINGTON CONSERVATIVE GAIN. Tom Brake won this consistently marginal seat for the Lib Dems in 1997 and has fought off a succession of Tory challenges, but they have finally overhauled him in this Leave-leaning seat. Elliot Colburn won by 629 votes.
CHELSEA & FULHAM Conservative hold. Greg Hands saw only a tiny fall in his vote share and took nearly twice as many as the Lib Dems in second place.
