Well have the full result, with the conservatives on 318, labour on 262, and both parties having increased their share of the vote. In Northern Ireland, the Democratic Unionist Party, with ten seats, agreed to try to help the conservatives to stay in power. The Prime Minister has spoken to me this morning, and we will enter discussions with the conservatives, to explore how it might be possible to bring stability to our nation. In scotland, a challenging night for the snp. They lost a third of their seats. The former leader alex salmond was among those defeated. After a collapse in ukips share of the vote, and no mps, the Party Leader Paul Nuttall resigned. And with just ten days to the start of the brexit talks, well be reporting on the far reaching implications for the future of the United Kingdom. More news and analysis throughout the day. We will have reaction from around the uk, europe and the rest of the world to the result. Good evening from Downing Street, where theresa may is trying to construct a new government and face the challenge of the imminent Brexit Process, having lost her majority in the house of commons, while labour made unexpected gains. The conservatives emerged from yesterdays election as the Largest Party, but with no parliamentary majority, and theyre hoping to rely on Northern Irelands democratic unionists to stay in power. The Prime Minister said she felt sorry for colleagues who lost their seats, and said she would reflect on the lessons. So this is the final outcome. The conservatives have 318 seats, eight short of a majority. Labour has 262, the snp 35, the Liberal Democrats 12, the Democratic Unionist Party ten, and plaid cymru four. The conservatives lost 13 seats overall. Theyd been expecting big gains. Labour added 30, while the snp lost 21. So theresa may is still Prime Minister, but there are questions about the viability of this new administration. In this extended programme, well have the results, reaction and analysis, and well consider the implications both for brexit and for scottish independence. First our Political EditorLaura Kuenssberg reports on a Night And Day of intense political drama. Is this strong and stable, Prime Minister . She who dares doesnt always win. The most votes, the most seats, but under this stinging glare, no iron gates nor Police Protection can shield theresa may from the accusation she looks a political loser. The trappings of power, the visit to the palace, help from Northern Irish mps mean she can gather enough support to stay on. But having believed herself to be on the brink of a sizeable majority, going backwards seems like defeat. I have just been to see her majesty the queen and i will now form a government. A government that can provide certainty and lead britain forward at this critical time for our country. This government will guide the country through the crucial brexit talks that begin injust ten days. Not a single mention of the result. What the country needs more than ever is certainty and having secured the largest number of votes and the greatest number of seats in the general election, it is clear that only the conservative and Unionist Party has the legitimacy and ability to provide that certainty by commanding a majority in the house of commons. This will allow us to come together as a country and channel our energies towards a successful brexit deal that works for everyone in this country, securing a new partnership with the eu which guarantees our long term prosperity. Thats what people voted for last june. Thats what we will deliver. Now, lets get to work. So theresa may walks back into number ten still Prime Minister but damaged, diminished, a smallerfigure. Thank you very much Jeremy Corbyn is not the victor. Labour lost as badly as they did in 2010. But he looks it. Behind by nearly 60 seats, but so much further on than anyone expected. Many young voters dreams, the tories nightmare. Incredible result for the labour party because people voted for hope. Young people and old people all came together yesterday. Very high turnout, huge increase in the labour vote and they did it because they want to see things done differently and they want hope in their lives. Coffee for tory staffers this morning instead of celebratory champagne. The loss of so many seats burst their balloons. Are you stepping down, mrs may . Traditional Election Rules showed few clues to theresa mays retreat. Boris, does your party need a new leader . Should it be you . By morning, words in the wind of ministers who might think of their own manoeuvres. Because what was surprise at the start. And what were saying is the conservatives are the Largest Party. Note that they dont have an overall majority at this stage. Gradually, seat after seat, was glorious shock for labour. Loss after loss for the conservatives. No obvious pattern or geography to start with. But a Hung Parliament. Well keep the red flag flying here. With no overall winner becoming clear. We cannot see any way at all that the conservatives can get to the 326 mark and we think its pretty clear that there is going to be a Hung Parliament. Was he grabbing a victory of sorts . Well, over the sceptics in his party. Politics isnt going back into the box where it was before. What had seemed her unassailable lead at the startjust melted away. Personal as well as political loss written all over her face. As we ran this campaign, we set out to consider the issues that are the key priorities for the british people. The tories care about winning. It wasnt long for the first call for her to go. Shes a very talented woman and she doesnt shy from difficult decisions, but she now has to obviously consider her position. But no others publiclyjoined. Discipline perhaps . Or some cheer from tories big wins in scotland, a separate campaign fought with 13 seats won, levels of support not seen for years. The tories and Labour In Scotland dragged the snp down from their high point. The bubble pricked even for alex salmond. Other parties took heavy fire. The lib dems adding seats but losing their biggest household name, nick clegg, perhaps loved and loathed. Nuttall, paul andrew, ukip. And in reverse, another ukip leader took his leave. No party though can govern alone. Meet the ten strong Democratic Unionist Party, Northern Irish mps who will prop theresa may up. The Prime Minister has spoken with me this morning and we will enter discussions with the conservatives to explore how it may be possible to bring stability to our nation. 0thers, though, calling for her to go. We will work with others if it is at all possible to keep the tories out of government. She put her party before her country, she has been found out. She should be ashamed. Its an Act The Westminster Circus did not expect. I think labour mps have been shocked by how well weve done. A lot of them will recognise jeremys here and will take us into the next election and they will start to work with him. I think weve witnessed a political earthquake and i am going to be the first or second or third person to say that jeremy has had a character explosion. You must accept, though, that a Hung Parliament makes the government less stable, less strong. I accept this isnt the result we wanted. Its not a great result. Im not here sugar coating this view. Im telling you that of the options, once the people have decided at the ballot box, this is the clear one that gives the country certainty. But only late this afternoon did the Prime Minister acknowledge that anything had gone wrong. I had wanted to achieve a larger majority, but that was not the result that we secured and im sorry for all those candidates and hard working Party Workers who werent successful. She won more votes, more seats, she keeps this address, but her gamble failed. The electorate can damn with faint praise. Laura keunssberg, bbc news, Downing Street. Seven weeks ago, the Prime Minister stood here in Downing Street and insisted she needed a strong electoral mandate to underpin the Brexit Negotiations. And in the early stages of the campaign there was no suggestion in surveys of Public Opinion that the political gamble would not pay off. But the result, when all the votes were counted, was the disappearance overnight of mrs mays majority, and a Hung Parliament, despite an increase in the conservative share of the vote. 0ur deputy Political Editor john pienaar takes a closer look at mrs mays gamble and how it failed. Who expected to hear or tell this tale today . The story of a leader and her party that felt unstoppable, at times seemed lost. Then ended up mocked by enemies, and seen by the rest as having gone from strong and stable to weak and wobbly. Theresa may, top of her party, but no longer in charge. There had been a turning point. It was awful. The campaign was going swimmingly well until we launched our own manifesto, and did the triple assault on our core vote the elderly. Mrs may never looked like stumbling at the start. It was all about her, britains most trusted leader most of all by older voters. We will deliver for britain. But a new social care policy left thousands, including natural conservative supporters, fearing their family homes might go to pay care bills after they had gone. That forced a u turn a u turn she unconvincingly tried to deny. Nothing has changed. Nothing has changed we are offering a long Term Solution for the sustainability of social care for the future. But no one really believed it. Are you embarrassed by this u turn, Prime Minister . Tory poll ratings suffered. Furious tories blamed her advisers, and theresa mays way of relying on them, fiona hill and nick timoney, who is said to have come up with the vote loser of a planned. Will he last . Through the campaign, tv and radio appearances were dominated by a handful of trusted administers. One in particular, who was sent to debate when her boss said no. Theresa may may not be here, but i hope to make a good fist of it. Today, the focus is on tories who want more of a role, and a more powerful cabinet as a whole. Life is not going to be easy in future. Would a bit more Cabinet Discussion help . There have been a lot of complaints, a lot of feeling that things have been decided by a small group of people, ministers have not been consulted. I think the Prime Minister would be wise to Pay Attention to this feeling that ministers need to be included in all decisions. You know, any decision that affects their department, it is absurd they are not consulted. Theresa mays credit with voters seemed to fade the longer the campaign went on. Once, when she was defending tory spending plans. In the labour party manifesto, we know the figures dont add up. What is important. What about your own figures . Let the Prime Minister answer. Two Terrorist Attacks made this an election like no other. Mrs may claimed to be the leader to keep britain safe, but was challenged time and again about police cuts. Austerity was costing them support. Jeremy corbyn tapped into the feeling of Anti Austerity in the country, and i picked that up on the doorstep. People were tiring of austerity and wanted something different. It is too late for theresa may to correct the failures of her campaign, but there is time to pay the price as she plans a parliamentary programme, knowing that anything that upsets mps risks a humiliating defeat. She had hoped to win freedom on brexit but the danger now is that her hands may be tied. The Prime Ministers big gamble failed. Today, she has spoken of five more years in office but when you are under this kind of pressure, time can fly quickly between one crisis and the next. John pienaar, bbc news, westminster. Labour gained 30 seats last night across britain, forcing many ofJeremy Corbyns opponents in the party to admit they had underestimated him and his ability to enthuse Younger Voters. Mr corbyn says it was an incredible result for his party. Vicki young looks at how and where those labour gains were achieved. 0h, Jeremy Corbyn it wasnt victory, but to Jeremy Corbyn and his most ardent fans, it felt almost as sweet. Many had written him off. Instead, hes delivered labours largest increase in the share of the vote since the war. His team say he offered voters hope, a positive vision. They want jeremys slogan when he stood as leader straight talking, honest politics. Thats what they want, they want someone to come forward and say, this is what i believe in, this is what i want to implement and this is what im going to do. And they support that type of politics. It was exactly what these huge, enthusiastic crowds wanted. All over the country, mr corbyn took his message. 0ur Manifesto offers something very, very different. He promised higher pay, more free childcare, to scrap tuition fees, paid for by higher taxes on corporations and the wealthy. And when the results rolled in, it seemed that Younger Voters were behind the labour surge. Rosemary Claire Duffield is duly elected. The University City of canterbury, a seat which had been held by the conservatives for 100 years, now labour. Some think their success stemmed from videos on social media, which had tens of millions of views and shares. I think a lot of young people, as well, dont necessarily read all the newspapers that were kind of doing their Smear Campaign againstJeremy Corbyn, so i think people underestimated actually how effective sharing stories and photographs, how effective that was going to be. I paid the university fees, and for people it is just so refreshing to see Somebody Stick to his word. What do you think about his image and the campaign he ran . I think he did well. I mean, he did turn up to all the debates and stuff. Theresa may didnt. Ijust think that people are quite interested in his kind of antiestablishment rhetoric and how he has kind of always sat on the backbenches and just been fighting for small people, for the little man, for 30 odd years. Insiders here at labour hq say this result was absolutely a victory forJeremy Corbyn. They say he enthused voters, especially the young, by offering clear, popular policies. The question now is whether labour mps will finally accept his leadership. Last year, mr corbyn was challenged for the top job. Today, his former rival was eating humble pie. Well, i was clearly wrong in feeling that jeremy wouldnt be able to do this well, and i think he has proved me wrong and lots of people wrong, and i take my hat off to him. I dont know whatjeremys got, but if we could bottle it and drink it, wed all be doing very well. 0thers praise mr corbyns performance but point out that power is still some way off. We can win over former conservative voters, but we need to understand why, despite the fact that they often identify with our values, they didnt vote for us this time. And so, thats not a negative process, its a positive process, building on the leap forward that weve had at this general election. Labour party candidate, 16,333 votes. And tonight, the final result of the 2017 election. Labour took kensington from the conservatives byjust 20 votes. Labour has now lost three general elections in a row. We are just walking down the street to our home now. Thank you, everybody, so much for coming. But the infighting of the past two years is forgotten, for now. Vicki young, bbc news, westminster. Halifax was one of the key marginal seats in this election, a labour seat with a majority of just 428. It was high on the conservative target list, and theresa may unveiled her manifesto there. But the voters of halifax Returned A Labour mp To Westminster, with a substantially increased majority of more than 5000. Our special correspondent lucy manning has been speaking to voters about the issues that mattered to them. There was trouble at the mill for theresa may. Dean clough mill in halifax was where she came to unveil her manifesto last month. Jordan and derrin work for a business in the now converted factory. Jordan became a labour convert. 0riginally i was going to vote for conservative, like i did in 2010. I did change my mind probably about half way through this campaign, and
