Rachel Reeves was elected as MP for the new constituency of Leeds West and Pudsey to huge whoops from a crowd of Labour supporters.

It is a historical moment as she is expected to become the country’s first female chancellor of the exchequer.

However, she was quick to point out in her first interview of the night with the BBC that she didn’t want to pre-empt who Sir Keir Starmer appointed to his cabinet.

The result from Pontefract, Castleford and Knottingley, the seat previously held by Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, is due soon.

Ms Cooper arrives at the count amid applause from a crowd of Labour supporters.

Leeds South West and Morley is due to be announced in the next 20 minutes.

The Conservative candidate Andrea Jenkyns, who beat Ed Balls in the 2015 general election, is not yet at the count.

Jon Trickett, the Labour candidate for Normanton and Hemsworth, describes turnout in the seat as “poor”.

“My concern is that a large number of people haven’t voted,” he says.

“It’s a lack of faith in the direction the country's taken. We need to go away and think about that.

“It’s a lesson that we’ve to learn - and it’s important that we do.”

Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves has promised to fight for everyone in her constituency, not just those who voted for her.

Javed Bashir, an Independent standing in Spen Valley, says the protest vote over the Israel-Gaza conflict “is going to be huge” in seats in the Kirklees area.

Mr Bashir says independents will be "at the real heart of the story" this election.

Previously a Liberal Democrat, he says voters are "tired of the merry-go-round" between the two main parties.

We've looked at the smallest majorities, now for the biggest.

As explained earlier the redrawing of constituency boundaries in 2023 has resulted in a recalculation of the majorities - with the figures below reflecting the majorities that would have been achieved in 2019 based on the 2024 boundaries.

The largest majorities in Yorkshire are:

• Wetherby and Easingwold - 27,164
• Bradford West - 27,019
• Richmond and Northallerton - 24,331
• Thirsk and Malton - 23,337
• Skipton and Ripon - 22,517

In total, 132 MPs chose not to stand again at the general election, including six from Yorkshire.

Conservatives Robert Goodwill (Scarborough and Whitby) and Craig Whittaker (Calder Valley) chose not to seek re-election this time, as did former Labour MPs Paul Blomfield (Sheffield Central), Holly Lynch (Halifax), Barry Sheerman (Huddersfield) and Rosie Winterton (Doncaster Central).

Mr Sheerman, who announced his plan to step down in 2021, was first elected as an MP for Huddersfield East in 1979 before representing the Huddersfield constituency from 1983.

The 84-year-old described his time in parliament as "the honour of my life" but said he was looking forward to spending more time with his family.

Rachel Reeves wins in Leeds West & Pudsey with a majority of more than 12,000.

She's now highly likely to become Keir Starmer's chancellor - and would be the first woman to hold the role.

With 18 seats up for grabs across Leeds and West Yorkshire (not including the five Bradford seats) there are a few of particular interest.

Colne Valley is regarded as a "bellwether" seat - one that tends to return an MP from that party that goes on to form a government - and last year was one of the Conservative's big wins, when Jason McCartney took the seat from Labour's Thelma Walker.

Elsewhere ,keep an eye on Dewsbury and Batley where the independent candidate, Iqbal Mohamed, is pushing hard. Labour lost control of Kirklees Council in May, partly down to the election of independent councillors in this part of the district.

Leeds West and Pudsey is where Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves is in the running, while Yvette Cooper, Shadow Home Secretary, is among the candidates standing in Pontefract, Normanton and Castleford.

And, should Labour take Leeds North West, Katie White would become only the third female to represent Leeds at Westminster, after Alice Bacon in 1945 and Ms Reeves since 2010.
