Labour's Cat Eccles, who took Stourbridge from the Conservatives, sait it was "an honour" to be an MP in her home town.

"It's absolutely incredible... It's where my friends are, it's where my family is," she said.

"I'm not sure it's going to sink in probably until I've had quite a few hours' sleep."

Downing Street has Larry the cat but Stourbridge has George, the Stourbridge Junction station cat. Will he be taken to London to meet Larry?

"I think George's dad will be very upset if I tried to pinch him. But yeah I've got three cats of my own. I'm not sure how I'm going to manage with or without them in London, but we'll have to wait and see what happens."

But as Larry is reportedly quite feisty, Ms Eccles will probably leave her cats at home.

Independent Ayoub Khan has taken Birmingham Perry Barr, with just over 500 votes ahead of Labour's Khalid Mahmood.

He got 13,303 votes while Mr Mahnood, who has held the seat for quite a few years, polled 12,796.

Conservative Garry Hickton took third place with 4,227 and the Reform candidate Akshay Khuttan polled. 2,446.

There are now only a handful of seats left to declare. So stay with us for the full picture.

We are waiting for one more result - Birmingham Perry Barr.

Political editor Rob Mayor says there are 'bundle checks' taking place.

If a candidate requests a recount a returning officer can ask that the bundles of ballots are spot checked.

It is currently looking tight between Labour's Khalid Mahmood and an independent candidate.

Labour's Shabana Mahmood, who has held onto her seat in Ladywood, said masked men disrupted a community meeting and "terrified" those present.

"British politics must wake up to what happened in this election," she said.

She and Yardley MP Jess Phillips have spoken out about the intimidation they faced during the election campaign.

Labour's Shabana Mahmood has held her seat in Ladywood, speaking out about harassment she has received during her campaign in her victory speech.

Mahmood won 15,558 votes, losing 40.5% of her vote share, while Independent Akhmed Yakoob, who also campaigned in the vote for the West Midlands Mayor, received 12,137 votes.

In her speech, Ms Mahmood said people had harassed her and her family, as well as people campaigning for her.

As with Jess Phillips, Ms Mahmood spoke of reports made to the police about threats and harassment against her.

She called it an "assault on democracy itself" and said it was "never acceptable to intimidate and threaten" people.

"I know what a Muslim looks like, a Muslim looks like me, I know what Muslim values are and they are British values too," she said.

Labour has held Birmingham Hall Green and Moseley, where the Conservative candidate finished in sixth place.

Tahir Ali, with 12,798 votes, finished ahead of two independent candidates - Shakeel Afsar, who had 7,142 votes, and Mohammad Hafeez, who polled 6,159.

Next was Izzy Knowles from the Liberal Democrats with 4,711, Green candidate Zain Ahmed with 3,913 and Tory Henry Morris, who had 3,845.

The returning officer said independent supporters in the audience were too noisy while the announcements were taking place.

Birmingham-born Mr Ali, the former Royal Mail worker and ex-Communication Workers Union officer, was defending a huge notional Labour majority of more than 26,000.

The Labour Party's Preet Gill has held Edgbaston with a majority of more than 8,000.

In second place, the Conservatives' Ashvir Sangha received 8,231 votes, while Reform UK came third with 4,363 votes.

Yardley MP Jess Phillips has been elected by a majority of just 689 votes, narrowly beating Workers Party candidate Jody McIntyre.

Her victory speech was drowned out by heckling from supporters of Mr McIntyre who shouted "shame on you" and "free free Palestine".

Ms Phillips said it was the "worst election [she] had ever faced" and that one of her supporters had her tyres slashed while out canvassing.

In her speech, she said she was supposed to be joined by Jo Cox's family today, but that she "could not have allowed them" due to "aggressive and [violent]" behaviour.

She also thanked West Midlands Police for the number of calls they received from her today due to harrassment.

Ms Philipps won 11,271 votes with Mr McIntyre just behind with 10,582 votes.

Labour's Cat Eccles has won the Stourbridge constituency from Tory incumbent Suzanne Webb, with a 20.2% swing to Labour.

Ms Eccles received 15,338 votes to Webb's 12,265 votes, with the Tories losing 31% in vote share compared to 2019.

Sonia Kumar is elected as the MP for Dudley, taking the seat from Conservative Marco Longhi, who was elected for Dudley North in 2019.

Ms Kumar, an NHS physiotherapist, got 12,215 votes, while incumbent Longhi received 10,315 - a 34.3% loss in vote share.

The Reform UK candidate, Andrew Southall, came in third with 9,442 votes.

Ms Kumar previously said she was shocked and disappointed by a "divisive" letter Mr Longhi sent to British Pakistani voters in the constituency, in which he underlined Kumar's surname.

Critics claimed this was to point out Ms Kumar's British Indian background in the hope of persuading British Pakistani Muslims not to vote for her.

Mr Longhi denied trying to stoke division.

Labour have retained Birmingham Selly Oak, which it has held for 32 years.

Alistair Carns (pictured) polled 17,371 votes and Conservative Simon Phipps, with 5,834, had only 102 more votes than Reform's Erin Crawford.

The majority, 11,537, is similar to the notional figure from 2019.

Steve McCabe has retired after 27 years in Parliament - 14 years as Selly Oak MP.

Labour has held its Birmingham Erdington seat, with incumbent Paulette Hamilton getting 14,774 votes.

Reform UK came in second place, with candidate Jack Brookes receiving 7,755 votes.

The Conservatives came in third place with 5,402 votes, a loss in vote share of 25.5%.

Hamilton was first elected in a by-election after the death of Jack Dromey in January 2022, making her Birmingham's first black MP.

Labour have gained Wolverhampton West from the Conservatives, who were defending a slim majority.

Warinder Juss polled 19,331 votes, with Tory Mike Newton getting 11,463.

It is an expanded version of the previous Wolverhampton South West constituency, which has been among the most marginal West Midlands seats in recent elections.

The notional Tory majority from 2019 was calculated as 934.

Wolverhampton's three Labour MPs have been pictured celebrating, with Mr Juss (right) in a positive mood alongside Wolverhampton North East's Sureena Brackenridge and Wolverhampton South East's Pat McFadden.

Labour has won Halesowen from the Conservatives with a 19% swing.

New MP Alex Ballinger is a former Royal Marine who served two tours in Afghanistan, before working with the Foreign Office on humanitarian projects in the Middle East and Pkistan.

He now runs a mental health charity.

Ballinger got 15,023 votes, while Tory incumbent James Morris received 10,659 - a 32.6% loss in vote share.

Morris had been seeking a fourth term in Parliament for Halesowen.

Laurence Turner is the new MP for Birmingham Northfield as Labour took the constituency from the Tories.

It was previously held by Gary Sambrook, who was defending a narrow Conservative majority.

Turner received 14,929 votes, while Gary Sambrook had 9,540 - a 20.7% loss in seat share for the Tories. Reform's Stephen Peters received 7,895.

Birmingham Northfield is regularly one of the closest-fought seats in the West Midlands.

Labour has scraped a win in Birmingham Hodge Hill & Solihull, with incumbent Liam Byrne seeing his majority slashed.

Byrne received 10,655 votes, just over 1,500 votes more than James Giles from the Workers Party, who received 9,089. This is a 28.7% loss in vote share since 2019.

The Conservatives came in fourth place, with Reform UK coming in third.

Byrne was MP for the former constituency of Birmingham Hodge Hill from 2004-2024 and has now won his seventh election.

The Workers Party got huge cheers and chants of "free Palestine" echoed through the NEC as Byrne finished his victory speech.
