    As Conservative Robert Courts made a hasty exit, new Witney MP Charlie Maynard (pictured centre, wearing a suit and yellow tie) was seen hugging his ecstatic Lib Dem colleagues after finishing his victory speech.

    Witney hasn’t voted in any party other than the Conservatives since the seat was created in 1983, and despite the exit poll indicating the Tories would hold it, the seat now belongs to the Lib Dems.

    In the end it was comprehensive, with more than 4,000 votes between the two parties.

    Witney could not have been clearer - it’s time for a change.
