Who won the general election 2019? Liverpool, regional and UK results from a disastrous night for Labour

The Conservative Party are on course for a landslide majority in the General Election after a disastrous night for the Labour Party.

Jeremy Corbyn's party lost traditional seats like Wrexham, Blyth Valley, and Don Valley - in the party's worst electoral performance since the second world war.

But in Liverpool and Wirral Labour candidates held their seats and in Birkenhead, longstanding incumbent Frank Field lost out to the Labour candidate.

The 10pm exit poll projected a huge Tory majority, and so far the results have suggested it is largely correct, with Labour's heartland seats tumbling like dominoes.

Mr Corbyn has already made clear that he will stand down as leader - but he suggested he will stay in charge while the party reflects on what went wrong.

Brexit has caused division across the UK and our political system has been in chaos for the past three years.

The general election was agreed at the start of November and since then we have seen a tense and fiery campaign period as the different parties have fought tooth and nail for votes.

Our special General Election tool allows you to easily see results across the UK and for your specific local area, whether that be in Merseyside or beyond and see which have won.

To find out the results for where you live, simply put your post code into the search bar and hit search.

The tool will also give you a run down of how the parties are doing on a national scale throughout the night.

The map of results will update as and when seats are declared.
