'The centre and the centre-right is now split'

The former Conservative MP for Gloucester, Richard Graham, has said the "centre and the centre-right is now split".

Speaking after losing his seat, Mr Graham referred to the combined Conservative and Reform votes in the constituency totalling more than Labour's.

Mr Graham has been the city's MP since 2010 but lost his seat to Labour's Alex McIntyre and said he does not plan to stand again.
