Good morning, everyone, and welcome to a special

I'm Ricky live outside the Houses of Parliament on a really important

morning for the future of the country.

I'm here in Westminster, in the heart of London

because yesterday, adults in the UK voted for who they want

All through the night, while you were asleep,

Well, there is no clear winner of this election.

The Conservative Party, led by the Prime Minister Theresa May,

have won the most votes, but have not done well enough

Theresa May stays as Prime Minister for now, though.

And although the Conservatives are the biggest party

after the election, it's being seen as a big defeat for her

because they did much worse than she, and many

Let's have a look at what's been happening -

Martin's been up all night - and sent us this.

Millions of adults, somewhat the pet dogs, turned up to polling stations

across the UK on Thursday. From your schools to a launderette, and even a

castle. Voting on who should run the country took place on the morning

until late at night. It has just gone 10pm, the doors are closed, all

the signs are coming down, and the polling stations are now officially

close. It is now time to take all those votes so they can be counted.

The ballot box is then rushed to places like this, right now I'm in

Leeds town Hall, check out all this excitement. Hundreds of people

counting thousands of votes, and I've got to say, I'm getting a bit

concentration by. Yes, lots of concentration. It is exciting, and

like this, happening all around the country, in every city and town,

there are groups of people doing this. It was a long night,

especially for a lot of nervous voters for Theresa May's

Conservative Party. That's because they did much worse than many people

expected. It is a massive blow to the Prime Minister. She did not need

to have an election but decided to have one anyway. Even though they

came second, the Labour Party, led by Jeremy Corbyn, did much better

than the people expected. This is a big deal, this seed was currently

held by the Liberal Democrats. Now Labour have taken it. Overall,

business or clear winner after an exciting night. -- there's no clear

winner. So it's a really confusing

picture to be waking up to. Here at Parliament, lots

of journalists are running around, trying to make some sense out of it

all, and that's not easy when you've As I mentioned before,

the Conservatives have won the most votes, but not well enough to form

a Government on their own. When this happens, it's called

a "hung parliament". To win, a team or party needs to

reach the magic number of fringe and 26 MPs. That's more than anyone else

put together, and you can put your plans through Parliament -- fringe

and 26. If you can do that, you can be Prime Minister. If no single team

can reach the target, they will need help to claim victory, this could

take a while. One way is to borrow MPs from another team to get the

winning high score. But if that is still not enough, they need to

borrow MPs from two or even more teams to get them over the finish

line. This is where it can get tricky. If everyone isn't happy with

the deal, their partnership could crumble. If a high-scoring team can

keep control and work with other teams, they will have the best

chance to hit the score of fringe and 26. Well done, Leah, you have

one, you got a Prime Minister and a government, it is after Ten Downing

Street. So, there you have it, a hung

parliament. If you're still confused or want to find out more about what

happened, you can head to Newsround online, and you can ask a question.

If you have a question, we will try and get them answered for you. I

will be spending the whole day here in London, soaking up the atmosphere

and giving you all the latest here Newsround. Don't forget, you can

come back in half an hour of the loads.
