First results show massive swing from Labour to Conservatives

The first two constituencies announced show an average nine percent swing in favor of the Conservative party, backing up the exit poll which shows similar results nationwide.

While Labour candidates win Newcastle Upon Tyne Central and Sunderland South, albeit with a significantly reduced majority, the Conservatives win the Blyth Valley seat from Labour for the first time since its creation in 1950.
