  9. Liam Fox: Conservative majority 'entirely possible'published at 00:46 British Summer Time 9 June 2017

    Election 2017

    Liam Fox

    International Trade Secretary Liam Fox thinks it's "entirely possible we will still get a majority" as there are "very differential results across the country".

    He won't be drawn into saying how the Conservatives would behave as a minority government, explaining "I'm not going to give positions when we don't know what the next Parliament looks like."

    He won't comment either on Theresa May's future, saying only it's "very early" and he's "pretty happy we might outperform" the exit poll.

    Former Chancellor George Osborne tells ITV he thinks the PM will remain in post if she can win a majority. "But I think there will be a huge post-mortem about having the general election, about the manifesto... about the style of the campaign.

    "And out of all of that, people will start to ask questions... about the future of the direction of the Conservative Party."

  19. Could Labour secure up to six seats in Scotland?published at 00:34 British Summer Time 9 June 2017

    Laura Kuenssberg
    BBC political editor

    Labour sources are very confident of taking seats in Scotland - at least four, potentially as many as six.

    Maybe the public have defied the political establishment absolutely well and truly...

  20. North Norfolk: 'Too close to call'published at 00:33 British Summer Time 9 June 2017

    Andrew Sinclair
    BBC Look East political correspondent

    I'm in North Walsham, where counting is taking place for the North Norfolk constituency.

    It's been held by the Liberal Democrats' Norman Lamb for 16 years, but he's fighting off a challenge from the Conservatives' James Wild.

    The feeling here from both the Lib Dems and the Conservatives is that is a very, very close call, and there could be fewer than 1,000 votes between them.

    This has been a seat which has been the centre of attention throughout the general election campaign.

    The Lib Dems tell me they've given it their best shot but they feel they've been outgunned by the Conservatives, who've thrown a lot of resources into campaigning here.

    The Lib Dems' best hope is to trade on Norman Lamb's record as MP for 16 years, and they've fought a local campaign. I understand that the party's leader Tim Farron did offer to come up and campaign, but they said they'd rather keep it local.
