A Conservative source says Bridgend is "definitely heading into recount territory".

The seat was once regarded as a safe Labour constituency and Madeleine Moon has been the MP since 2005.

No-one from three of the parties on Ynys Môn is willing to say which way they think the result will go.

Labour is defending a majority of over 5,000 and a Labour official said it’s very much on a knife-edge.

The Conservative candidate Virginia Crosbie was very tight-lipped and wouldn’t be drawn.

Welsh Health Secretary Vaughan Gething says that Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn must go if there is a Tory majority.

When asked if he was ready for a new leader, the Labour AM answered with a definite “yes”.

“This election hasn’t been a policy issue - it’s more about Corbyn”.

He explained that “if we don’t have a functional leader and opposition”, it was "time for a change".

Stephen Kinnock, Labour's Aberavon candidate has said that if the exit poll is correct he would "urge" Jeremy Corbyn to consider his position.

Labour losses are forecast across the UK.

He said the issue of Brexit and the issue of trust in the party's leadership were tangled up together, adding "leaders are judged by their results" ... "We have to be the party of Blyth Valley as much as the party of Brighton."

We're not too far away from getting our first result of the night in Wales. The Vale of Clwyd result is expected in the next half hour.

After locking horns for weeks, candidates across the country are getting close to finding out which of them have been successful.

Blaenau Gwent AM Alun Davies attacked the Jeremy Corbyn-supporting organisation Momentum in a tweet.

He said:

Carmarthen East and Dinefwr - 71.6%

Wrexham - 67.6%

Ceredigion - 71.3%

Cardiff South and Penarth - 64.4%

Delyn - 70.5%

Alyn and Deeside - 68.6%

Brecon and Radnorshire - 74.6%

Blaenau Gwent - 61.1%

A Tory source in Newport West said: "I am told they think Labour might just have it, but it's very tight."

Matthew Evans (pictured) is attempting to win the seat for the Conservatives from Labour.

Tom Davies, the Labour candidate for Brecon and Radnorshire said he was ‘devastated’ at how things seem to be going this evening.

In his constituency he said the biggest issue on the doorstep was Brexit. "The message of getting Brexit done was very effective. For a large amount of Brexit voters it has become a cult."

When asked, whether Jeremy Corbyn could stay on as Labour leader he said: “Time will tell, but it doesn’t look likely. It’s very sad. I joined the party because of him. I don’t think he will be able to stay on. People need to realise they are not just getting the Conservatives for Christmas, it’s for the next five years’.

Labour candidate for Rhondda Chris Bryant shares his thoughts on what is looking like a difficult night for his party.

Labour sources in Gower are saying it's "too close to call".

A Labour source has told the BBC to "get ready for a long night" as there may be recounts.

Labour candidate Tonia Antoniazzi has recently arrived at the count.

Welsh Conservative chairman Byron Davies, who lost the seat to Tonia Antoniazzi in 2017, also said the constituency was looking "close" but that the party was "very encouraged by what we have seen so far".

"I think people just want Brexit done. It's what people have been telling us," he said.

Bridgend - 66.9%

Caerphilly - 63.8%

Ogmore - 61.6%

Aberconwy - 71.6%

Pontypridd - 65%

Aberavon 65.2%

Neath - 65.4%

Swansea West - 63%

Swansea East - 57.6%

Gower - 61.7%

Dwyfor Merionnydd - 67.7%

"It's the worst night for Labour since 1935", says Labour's Chris Bryant, who is standing in Rhondda.

Speaking on BBC Wales' Election 2019 programme, he said: "We will have lost four elections in a row".

Mr Bryant added that Labour were out of power from 1979 to 1992 and were now looking "at being out in the wilderness for even longer" unless there was "some serious soul-searching.

"We sound too metropolitan - we sound like we're just Cardiff and London - we need to reach out more."
