The BBC's Katie Tyler says: "Conservative candidate for Maidenhead, Tania Mathias, has arrived at Braywick Leisure Centre as counting continues.

"She looks extremely calm, but didn't want to comment on how the evening is progressing until after the declaration is made."

The seat was previously held by former prime minister Theresa May from 1997.

Clive Jones won Wokingham with 25,743 votes, beating the Conservatives' Lucy Demery into second place. She won 17,398 votes.

Reform's Colin Wright came third with 5,274 votes. Labour's Monica Hamidi and the Greens' Merv Boniface were fourth and fifth respectively.

Turnout was 72.2%.

Liberal Democrat Clive Jones is Wokingham's new MP.

It has been held by the Conservatives for decades.

Previously Tory MP John Redwood held it from 1987 until his retirement earlier this year.

Labour's Tan Dhesi has been re-elected as the MP for Slough.

He has held the seat since 2017.

Labour's Peter Swallow has won the seat, beating the Conservatives' James Sunderland, who won the seat in 2019.

University lecturer Dr Swallow beat the Tories' James Sunderland by just under 800 votes.

But Reform won 7,445 votes, with Mr Sunderland winning 13,999.

Dr Swallow won 14,783 votes for Labour.

The BBC's Neranjana Elapatha at the Slough count says turnout in the constituency was 53.4% on Thursday.

That's lower than at 2019's general election, when it was 59%.

Matt Rodda, who won Reading Central with a majority of 12,600 over the Conservatives' Raj Singh, said he was still trying to take in his victory.

"It's a huge win for us in Reading. I'm so grateful to local residents for putting their trust in me and it's a great tribute to our Labour team: the council, other supporters, who have been fantastic throughout the campaign but I'm trying to take it all in," he said.

"There's been a real desire for change and people have expressed their views. That's the fundamental reason: the public wants to see a change of government."

Matt Rodda has won Reading Central - a new seat at this election - for Labour.

He was previously the MP for Reading East from 2017 until earlier this year, when it was abolished in boundary changes.

Ed Farrar in Bracknell says the count is a "little nervy".

"There's plenty of muttering from both the Conservatives who have held this seat since it’s inception and the Labour team heavily favoured in the polls," he said. "I asked Labour candidate Peter Swallow how he was feeling. ‘We’ll see’ was his rather polite way of avoiding me."

The BBC's Alex Meakin at the Newbury count reports that turnout - at 68.3% - is down in that constituency.

It was 71.9% within the constituency's previous boundaries back in 2019.

Clive Jones, the Lib Dems' candidate for Wokingham, said he was "very pleased" when the exit poll published at 22:00 showed that he is expected to take the seat from the Conservatives.

"We have run an extremely good campaign, a positive campaign. We've been working very hard for nearly two and a half years since I was selected as the candidate,” he said.

Mr Jones was previously the leader of Wokingham Borough Council.

He added: "We've spoken to loads and loads of residents and knocked on loads and loads of doors and I've personally spoken to over 10,000 Wokingham residents. I was quite shocked when I was told that two or three weeks ago.

"I would say I've been quite excited for some time thinking that we were doing the right things. We were knocking on lots of doors, we were talking to people about issues that were really concerning them: the state of the NHS, sewage in our rivers, the cost of living crisis."

No-one wants to say for sure but in the last few minutes I've had conversations with several Liberal Democrat councillors here in Wokingham who say they're convinced they're going to take the parliamentary seat from the Conservatives.

Not only that, they also think that by the time this count is over people -including them- will be surprised by just how wide the margin of victory will be. Their candidate Clive Jones is due to arrive here shortly.

John Redwood was the Conservative MP for Wokingham from 1987 until earlier this year.

Our reporter at the Bracknell count, Ed Farrar, says that it has been announced that turnout was 61.4% on Thursday.

That's down from 68.6% at the last general election five years ago.

Tory MP James Sunderland is looking to keep the seat he's held since 2019.

Labour agents and campaigners who we've spoken to at the Wokingham and Earley and Woodley counts say they have been told not to do any interviews with the media until their counts have finished and the results are in.

Colleagues just over the border in Witney, Oxfordshire have been told the same thing.

Former prime minister Theresa May, who stood down as Maidenhead's MP before the general election, will sit in the House of Lords.

The nominations were announced less than an hour before polls closed in the general election on Thursday.

Sir Alok Sharma, who was the Conservative MP for Reading West from 2010 until he stood down earlier this year, is also given a peerage.

He was the president of the climate COP26 conference in November 2021.

In what could be one of his final acts as prime minister, Rishi Sunak has also given honours to five of his Conservative colleagues.

Oliver Dowden, the deputy prime minister and close ally of Mr Sunak, will be knighted, as will the former Northern Ireland Secretary Julian Smith, the former Defence Secretary Ben Wallace and the Scottish Secretary Alister Jack.
