:00:00. > :00:00.Their share of the vote was down, reflecting

:00:07. > :00:08.Welcome to a special edition of Look North

:00:09. > :00:10.after a night of election shocks here in Yorkshire.

:00:11. > :00:14.They've taken four seats from the Conservatives and Lib Dems

:00:15. > :00:19.This time last year you called for Corbyn to step down.

:00:20. > :00:22.Yeah, and I think he's proved his critics wrong.

:00:23. > :00:25.The Conservatives fail to make the gains they wanted.

:00:26. > :00:28.And the Lib Dems are wiped out in Yorkshire, as their former leader

:00:29. > :00:33.Nick Clegg loses his seat in Sheffield Hallam.

:00:34. > :00:37.In politics you live by the sword and you die by the sword.

:00:38. > :00:40.Our reporters are out around Yorkshire on a momentous morning.

:00:41. > :00:55.One which the pundits completely failed to predict yet again.

:00:56. > :00:59.We might not know the shape of the next government yet

:01:00. > :01:03.but here in Yorkshire it's been a very good night for Labour.

:01:04. > :01:07.Even some of the party's MPs admit they're stunned.

:01:08. > :01:09.They've taken Keighley and the Colne Valley

:01:10. > :01:15.They've also wiped out the Lib Dems in Yorkshire,

:01:16. > :01:18.beating Greg Mulholland in Leeds North West and perhaps

:01:19. > :01:20.notably of all, the former Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg

:01:21. > :01:28.We're going to start there with our reporter Tom Ingall.

:01:29. > :01:37.Tell us the latest. It was a surprise election and it has had a

:01:38. > :01:41.surprise result. For the first time we think about the entire Sheffield

:01:42. > :01:46.political map is coloured red. They finally managed to get onto that

:01:47. > :01:50.irritating corner, Sheffield Hallam, Conservative seat until 1997 and

:01:51. > :01:53.then went to the Lib Dems and specifically for the last 12 years

:01:54. > :01:56.it's been the seat of Nick Clegg. Let me take you through the numbers.

:01:57. > :02:12.This is how it broke down. Are really for the Conservatives

:02:13. > :02:20.compared to 2015, but still well behind the Lib Dems and Labour.

:02:21. > :02:22.Let's go back to the main man, former leader of the Lib Dems,

:02:23. > :02:24.formerly Deputy Prime Minister, and formerly an MP.

:02:25. > :02:26.Just seven years ago it seemed everyone agreed with Nick.

:02:27. > :02:30.Now instead he had a long walk to the podium to hear someone else

:02:31. > :02:32.deliver the victor's speech for Sheffield Hallam.

:02:33. > :02:37.Everybody who has a physical disability like me or has any

:02:38. > :02:43.I will be your ally and friend and champion in Westminster.

:02:44. > :02:45.Let's all go on this journey together, guys.

:02:46. > :02:52.We must try and reach out to each other to try and find common

:02:53. > :02:56.ground if we are to heal those profound divisions.

:02:57. > :03:01.Because if we do not, if we do not, if we do not,

:03:02. > :03:04.it is my judgement that our country will endure unprecedented hardship

:03:05. > :03:11.A plea for all to work together on Brexit and then

:03:12. > :03:19.It was left to other Liberal Democrats to explain

:03:20. > :03:24.We've seen a massive increase in people turning out and voting.

:03:25. > :03:28.Jeremy Corbyn offered a manifesto we think not well costed

:03:29. > :03:31.but he promised many free things in there.

:03:32. > :03:33.Clearly, the vote's happened and we must respect that now.

:03:34. > :03:42.I hereby declare that Jill Furniss has been duly elected.

:03:43. > :03:45.It was a night of smiles and cheers for Labour with some stonking

:03:46. > :03:52.Not just in Sheffield, but right across South Yorkshire.

:03:53. > :03:57.This time, Ed Miliband didn't have to carry a party on his back

:03:58. > :04:01.and he has praise for the man who succeeded him, Jeremy Corbyn.

:04:02. > :04:02.I think he's proved his critics wrong.

:04:03. > :04:07.He won, not only the parliamentary party, but he's now gained seats

:04:08. > :04:10.for Labour and I think, as I say, he's proved his critics

:04:11. > :04:14.wrong and I think he deserves huge credit for this.

:04:15. > :04:18.Elections come and go, faces change, but it's the red flag

:04:19. > :04:26.which still captures the political wind in South Yorkshire.

:04:27. > :04:34.Worth saying it wasn't all plain sailing for Labour down this way. In

:04:35. > :04:39.Stockbridge, they got closely by the Conservatives, Angela Smith, the

:04:40. > :04:43.Labour MP, her majority cut from 7000 down to 1000, but she hung on

:04:44. > :04:47.in there however to the south, it's all change in North East Derbyshire.

:04:48. > :04:51.Natasha Engel losing to the Conservatives. A night some will

:04:52. > :04:54.want to remember, some will want to forget. Tom, thank you.

:04:55. > :04:57.So a dramatic night in Sheffield and also in lots of other

:04:58. > :05:01.Our data journalist David Rhodes has been up all night crunching

:05:02. > :05:03.the numbers and looking at the big picture.

:05:04. > :05:10.Another breathtaking evening of election results.

:05:11. > :05:12.Labour gaining seats, whilst the Tories have stood

:05:13. > :05:14.still and the Lib Dems have been wiped out.

:05:15. > :05:16.So let's look at the election map of Yorkshire as it

:05:17. > :05:21.North Yorkshire was dominated by the Conservatives with Labour

:05:22. > :05:24.holding only York Central and that remains the same this morning.

:05:25. > :05:28.If you live in North Yorkshire nothing has changed here.

:05:29. > :05:31.Let's go to South Yorkshire, and Labour's dominance in this

:05:32. > :05:36.Every seat in South Yorkshire is held by Labour after they unseated

:05:37. > :05:42.The Conservatives made one gain in the North Midlands taking

:05:43. > :05:50.But it's in West Yorkshire where the most seats changed hands.

:05:51. > :05:54.Labour unseated the other Yorkshire Lib Dem Greg Mullholland

:05:55. > :05:59.Young voters in this constituency appeared to have

:06:00. > :06:05.Whilst in Colne Valley and Keighly, areas that were divided

:06:06. > :06:09.by Brexit nearly 50/50, here Labour made big gains.

:06:10. > :06:14.But what are the underlying trends of this election?

:06:15. > :06:18.Well here are the total vote shares for our region in 2015.

:06:19. > :06:25.Labour dominate but UKIP picked up one in every six votes.

:06:26. > :06:27.Fast forward two years and watch this.

:06:28. > :06:37.Many voters asking themselves after Brexit what is Ukip for?

:06:38. > :06:39.The Lib Dems they had a terrible night in 2015.

:06:40. > :06:42.They thought that was as low as they could go, but no,

:06:43. > :06:46.more voters here in Yorkshire have turned their back on the party.

:06:47. > :06:49.And it leaves us in a rare situation where both Labour

:06:50. > :06:53.and the Conservatives have actually both increased their share

:06:54. > :06:58.We think most of the Ukip vote has gone to the Conservatives but some

:06:59. > :07:02.Ukip-ers will have gone back to Labour.

:07:03. > :07:05.But for Labour they've picked up votes from the Lib Dems and we think

:07:06. > :07:08.they've also been boosted by a growing number of young

:07:09. > :07:12.and disaffected voters who have this time turned out for Jeremy Corbyn.

:07:13. > :07:17.Labour did not expect to see these results this morning,

:07:18. > :07:19.the Conservatives certainly didn't but in parts of Yorkshire

:07:20. > :07:31.When you look at those results on the screen, it was a successful

:07:32. > :07:34.night in Yorkshire for the Labour Party.

:07:35. > :07:36.Joining me now is Dr Felicity Matthews, a politics expert

:07:37. > :07:47.And James Vincent, our political correspondence both of its been a

:07:48. > :07:49.long night. It's been tiring. Felicity, you didn't predict this

:07:50. > :07:54.result. Nobody would've predicted the seven weeks ago. It seems a long

:07:55. > :07:57.time ago when Theresa May had a 20% lead over Jeremy Corbyn and now

:07:58. > :08:02.that's all changed and the Conservatives have lost that

:08:03. > :08:06.majority, they've lost it. We're in a situation now of hung parliament

:08:07. > :08:09.so what happens now? There's a certain procedure followed now,

:08:10. > :08:13.Cabinet manual but sets out clearly what happens. The incumbent

:08:14. > :08:19.government is entitled to stay in place to see a big form another

:08:20. > :08:23.government, it doesn't have to be a majority government so Theresa May

:08:24. > :08:27.effectively has got first dibs on government formation and. If she

:08:28. > :08:30.can't do that, we have to have a viable alternative, perhaps the

:08:31. > :08:38.coalition, a Labour led minority government. Felicity, thank you.

:08:39. > :08:41.Eight seats in Leeds. Labour got very excited when they saw the exit

:08:42. > :08:45.poll and started whispering about what seats they could take in west

:08:46. > :08:47.Yorkshire from the Conservatives and in the end they settled for one and

:08:48. > :08:52.this is what happened in Leeds overnight. Leeds was not supposed to

:08:53. > :08:56.be this interesting. CHEERING

:08:57. > :08:59.They start of the night were the Lib Dems sweating it out in Leeds North

:09:00. > :09:04.West, thousands came out to see Jeremy Corbyn there this campaign,

:09:05. > :09:08.and ultimately it was the end for Lib Dem Greg Mulholland. Theresa

:09:09. > :09:12.May's a snap election cost him his job. She's going to lose a majority,

:09:13. > :09:16.some of her ministers been losing their seats tonight, and it shows

:09:17. > :09:19.appalling judgment. Someone like that is not fit to lead the country

:09:20. > :09:23.and they don't think she has credibility now as an MP and it's

:09:24. > :09:29.time she stood down and walked away. But walk me into Westminster, his

:09:30. > :09:32.replacement, Alex Sobel. This is down to young people and we saw

:09:33. > :09:39.people coming to Labour right across all age groups. Labour had got all

:09:40. > :09:42.excited, the exit poll had them telling tales of toppling the

:09:43. > :09:46.Conservatives in Pudsey. They went far off to be honest. Stuart Andrews

:09:47. > :09:51.still won but his majority was reduced from over 4000 to just over

:09:52. > :09:54.300. I think it wasn't the best campaign we've ever had and we need

:09:55. > :09:59.to be honest about that. What was wrong with the campaign? Perhaps we

:10:00. > :10:03.needed to get out of it more because that's what people want to. I think

:10:04. > :10:07.we've got to learn that lesson and reflect on that and deal with it for

:10:08. > :10:12.the future. Andrea Jenkins was the story last time out, beating Ed

:10:13. > :10:16.Balls. She merely got to see how that felt. She retained his seat,

:10:17. > :10:23.and she increased her slim majority. What a night. I've actually got no

:10:24. > :10:26.nails left after this evening. It was really tense. A good night for

:10:27. > :10:31.Labour and they will be pleased. They came together during the

:10:32. > :10:37.campaign but will some still be against Jeremy Corbyn when they go

:10:38. > :10:42.back to Parliament? A disappointing night for Greg Mulholland after 12

:10:43. > :10:47.years in the Leeds North West seat. Is it all about the student vote?

:10:48. > :10:50.Yes and no. If you member the scenes of Jeremy Corbyn with thousands of

:10:51. > :10:58.students supporting him, Leeds North West up the newest voters, basically

:10:59. > :11:02.students, but voting was down on two years ago but Greg Mulholland will

:11:03. > :11:06.have realised his goose was caught when he saw the students turning out

:11:07. > :11:09.for Jeremy Corbyn in Hyde Park. Indeed, thank you very much for now.

:11:10. > :11:11.As we've been hearing, Labour took two seats in West Yorkshire

:11:12. > :11:15.Colne Valley turned from blue to red with Thelma Walker

:11:16. > :11:17.beating Jason McCartney, who had been the MP for seven years.

:11:18. > :11:20.Our correspondent Danni Hewson was at the count and joins us

:11:21. > :11:31.A surprising results, Danny? Yes, that's right. You can see last of

:11:32. > :11:37.the summer Wine country behind me with a town of Holmfirth nestled in

:11:38. > :11:41.the Valley back there. It has been conservative for the last seven

:11:42. > :11:46.years. Jason McCartney took the seat back in 2010 and he increased his

:11:47. > :11:51.majority last time out. But this is a bellwether seat the mood and last

:11:52. > :11:58.night that mood turned it red. Let's look at the members. Thelma Walker

:11:59. > :12:03.got 28,000 votes were the Conservatives less than a thousand

:12:04. > :12:08.behind and everybody else just disappeared in their dust. It has to

:12:09. > :12:12.be said, even Thelma Walker herself, a retired headteacher, was rather

:12:13. > :12:15.surprised but you said over the last few weeks, the mood on the doorstep

:12:16. > :12:19.had been changing. Eye could see people over the weeks listening to

:12:20. > :12:23.our message on the doorstep. They had been reading the manifesto and

:12:24. > :12:28.they were saying, this is good for them this is what we want. And then

:12:29. > :12:34.seeing Jeremy on the television in the role of a strong leader coming

:12:35. > :12:38.through with a strong message. And they think that has been

:12:39. > :12:42.communicated on a national level. And on a local level. So we began

:12:43. > :12:50.the last few weeks thinking we could do this and we have. Of course it's

:12:51. > :12:54.not just national issues. One interesting part of this campaign

:12:55. > :13:04.had been concerns about plans to change hospital provision in nearby

:13:05. > :13:09.Super Holmfirth. When Jeremy Corbyn came to the area and said he would

:13:10. > :13:16.look at plans, that played well. Voters were up as well but tonight

:13:17. > :13:19.it was Labour's night here in Colne Valley. Thank you.

:13:20. > :13:21.Another place waking up with a new MP this

:13:22. > :13:24.With a very tight majority of just over 300 votes,

:13:25. > :13:26.John Grogan took the seat from Kris Hopkins.

:13:27. > :13:32.Spencer Stokes is in Keighley for us this morning.

:13:33. > :13:44.Another shocker, Spencer? Yes, this is the Keighley constituency, the

:13:45. > :13:50.Keighley half down their bathed in sunshine and the town waking up with

:13:51. > :13:55.a new Labour MP. But only just because look at these figures. Last

:13:56. > :14:02.night, the former MP Kris Hopkins for the Conservatives took 23,800

:14:03. > :14:08.votes, John Grogan from Labour, 24,000. It gives him a majority of

:14:09. > :14:12.just 239, one of the slimmest majority is in the whole of the

:14:13. > :14:18.country. John Grogan said to me he felt the mood changing in the last

:14:19. > :14:20.couple of days when he was campaigning in Keighley. Young

:14:21. > :14:25.people were asking for photographs, something they went doing a couple

:14:26. > :14:28.of years ago. At one point last night we thought there could be a

:14:29. > :14:34.shift on the Conservatives to Labour in the neighbouring constituency of

:14:35. > :14:38.Shipley, but it didn't happen. The Conservative MP there, Philip

:14:39. > :14:42.Davies, hung on, but he saw his majority cut in half. He had some

:14:43. > :14:46.quite critical words for Theresa May and also of the Conservative

:14:47. > :14:51.campaign when I spoke to him a few hours ago. I think we made a pig 's

:14:52. > :14:55.year of the National campaign, I think the stuff on social care, I've

:14:56. > :15:01.no idea where any of that came from. It came from thin air, it seemed and

:15:02. > :15:05.that was a mistake. I think Jeremy Corbyn tapped into the feeling of

:15:06. > :15:10.anti-austerities in the country and I'd picked that up on the doorstep.

:15:11. > :15:13.People were waning of austerity and wanted to hear something different.

:15:14. > :15:18.The Prime Minister went in with an overall majority and appears, early

:15:19. > :15:22.indications, we will come out without an overall majority. By

:15:23. > :15:27.anybody's standards, that's not a good place to be. Nobody can talk a

:15:28. > :15:32.lot up as a successful so I'm certainly not going to do that.

:15:33. > :15:36.Philip Davies re-elected as the Shipley MP. Keighley has a new

:15:37. > :15:42.Labour MP this morning, John Grogan, and if it's a name you recognise, up

:15:43. > :15:45.until 2010, he was the MP for Selby until Lazio was abolished, and man

:15:46. > :15:48.now preparing to head back to Westminster. Spencer, thank you.

:15:49. > :15:51.Well we saw John Grogan there, the new Labour MP for Keighley.

:15:52. > :15:55.We're also joined by former Conservative minister

:15:56. > :16:06.I'd like to start with Theresa May calling the selection for what she

:16:07. > :16:11.called a strong and stable government going into the Brexit

:16:12. > :16:15.talks. Should she go? That's entirely a matter for her how she

:16:16. > :16:22.take things forward now. Do you think she should go? No, I don't

:16:23. > :16:26.think so, not now. You can talk about the campaign, we can analyse

:16:27. > :16:30.it for a long time. It's an unusual result except the Conservatives had

:16:31. > :16:34.more votes, more vote share than they had before, and they also have

:16:35. > :16:40.the most seats, so... She launched the manifesto in Halifax and Labour

:16:41. > :16:44.increased it threefold. I'm not saying it's not disappointing, but

:16:45. > :16:47.we've now got to be very calm and collected about this. Her job as

:16:48. > :16:52.Prime Minister, never mind watching what might want to do, her

:16:53. > :16:55.obligation is to see the majority with as large a number of seats,

:16:56. > :17:01.whether she can form a government and if she can, a responsible one

:17:02. > :17:05.common and also a government which can take forward proposals in a way

:17:06. > :17:09.Parliament will approve them for the Queen's Speech, that's what you has

:17:10. > :17:13.to do. If she is able to do that, fair enough. If not, then obviously

:17:14. > :17:18.constitutionally we have to move on to different territory. But I'd do

:17:19. > :17:23.think what this election has said, if you look at the increase in

:17:24. > :17:27.turnout, younger people, we've always been encouraging younger

:17:28. > :17:33.people to vote, more of them turned out on this general election and

:17:34. > :17:36.their voice was heard and the results to some extent reflect that

:17:37. > :17:40.voice and that voice is going to continue in the areas of major areas

:17:41. > :17:46.of policy which no doubt, if we form the government, we have to reflect

:17:47. > :17:52.on very carefully indeed. Congratulations, John Grogan. Thank

:17:53. > :17:55.you. The Labour Party but resources into retaining seeds in Leeds and

:17:56. > :18:01.South Yorkshire. Were you surprised by your vote? Yes, I was. It got

:18:02. > :18:04.closer as the election went on that when we started, the Labour Party 's

:18:05. > :18:11.entire strategy was defending seats like Halifax. What won it for you,

:18:12. > :18:15.do you think? The manifesto infused people and the Tories started making

:18:16. > :18:18.mistakes over social care and local issues about schools and so on, and

:18:19. > :18:21.they think the Tories made the mistake that they went defending

:18:22. > :18:26.their marginals and they were on the offensive and didn't defend places

:18:27. > :18:28.like Keighley and we snuck through Fulford I expected to be at

:18:29. > :18:33.Headingley next Tuesday rather than voting for the Speaker of the House

:18:34. > :18:37.of Commons will be turned it around. Want to make a Jeremy Corbyn? He's

:18:38. > :18:42.had a marvellous campaign. I did not vote for him but you've got to take

:18:43. > :18:46.your hat off to him. I doubt whether we will get power this time around.

:18:47. > :18:49.John McDonnell said we will offer ourselves as a minority government

:18:50. > :18:55.but probably another Tory leader and the minority government with

:18:56. > :18:59.unionists, but if Jeremy has not given as power, this time he has

:19:00. > :19:02.governed the country and those young people we were talking about, it's

:19:03. > :19:09.an unusual thing for a man of 56 to be wondering around wanting selfie

:19:10. > :19:14.is with me because I'm the closest thing to that man. Felicity, there's

:19:15. > :19:18.no winners in this election. We have a hung parliament. What happens now

:19:19. > :19:23.because this was supposed to be to give us a clear direction in Brexit,

:19:24. > :19:28.for the next five years but there is no clarity at all? There is clarity

:19:29. > :19:33.in that there's a referendum result that stance, both major parties are

:19:34. > :19:36.to honouring the referendum result and they guess the question will be

:19:37. > :19:39.now what happens going into the negotiations and who goes into the

:19:40. > :19:44.negotiations because they are meant to start in just 11 days but I think

:19:45. > :19:48.there are winners in this election. I think it's democracy itself.

:19:49. > :19:53.Turnout has increased, everybody thought it was going to be another

:19:54. > :19:56.catastrophe, not another election, Brenda in Bristol, but young people

:19:57. > :20:01.having gauged, so there's a lot of good for the longer term. The whole

:20:02. > :20:05.parliament will want to be involved in the Brexit the gauche Asians now.

:20:06. > :20:10.No longer will it be acceptable, Theresa May and a few advisers do it

:20:11. > :20:16.behind closed doors and then two years down the line, every MP will

:20:17. > :20:18.want to be involved. Plenty of time to give talking now you've been

:20:19. > :20:20.elected. Thank you to all of you. So far we've focused on the seats

:20:21. > :20:22.which have changed hands. But there were plenty of stories

:20:23. > :20:24.elsewhere in Yorkshire. First let's go to York

:20:25. > :20:36.from where Phil Bodmer rounds up The ballot boxes and the county

:20:37. > :20:39.tables have been put away. Who knows for how long so watch changed in

:20:40. > :20:44.North Yorkshire over the last 24 hours? The truth is, nothing,

:20:45. > :20:48.because the MPs elected in 2015 of staging post and once again we have

:20:49. > :20:54.this sea of blue with just one seat that is read right in the middle. In

:20:55. > :20:58.tipping a majority, Rachel Maskell easily saw off the Tory challenge in

:20:59. > :21:05.York Central on a night a few surprises. I'm utterly delighted

:21:06. > :21:13.that York Central is so strongly Labour. And of course, our country,

:21:14. > :21:20.because Labour offers the answers to people's real concerns at this time.

:21:21. > :21:24.Julie Stirling held onto York Outer but admitted Tory results elsewhere

:21:25. > :21:30.were disappointing. The national campaign has uncovered itself in

:21:31. > :21:35.glory. Some good colleagues have lost their seats tonight. Elsewhere,

:21:36. > :21:38.Conservative Andrew Jones returned as MP for Harrogate. Fellow Tory

:21:39. > :21:47.Nigel Adams retained Selby. Kevin Holling rate and Robert Goodwood

:21:48. > :21:52.returned. Julian Smith kept Skipton and Ripon, a story in North

:21:53. > :21:58.Yorkshire. Now results elsewhere in the region. Lots of reasons for the

:21:59. > :22:05.region 's Labour candidates to smile. Absolutely. In South

:22:06. > :22:09.Yorkshire, the political map is much the same this morning as it was last

:22:10. > :22:12.night. Nick Clegg 's departure was the only drama the early hours in

:22:13. > :22:16.Sheffield as Labour retained the rest of the city seats while the

:22:17. > :22:27.Doncaster, Barnsley and Rotherham seat Stade read, to. -- Stade read,

:22:28. > :22:31.to. Political commentators have kept a close eye on some of our marginal

:22:32. > :22:35.seats with Halifax expected to be a battle ground but Holly Lynch didn't

:22:36. > :22:41.just hang on, she increased her majority from just over 400 to more

:22:42. > :22:46.than 5000. I'm humbled and delighted that after just two years I'd been

:22:47. > :22:50.returned to continue my work with an increased majority. Meanwhile, no

:22:51. > :22:53.change for Calder Valley. It's been a tough night, roller coasters

:22:54. > :22:58.election campaign, but the great thing is that the people have put

:22:59. > :23:03.their faith in me for a third term and of course we are delighted. A

:23:04. > :23:09.particularly strong performance for Labour in Bradford. They thought of

:23:10. > :23:15.a challenge on the independent candidate. In West Yorkshire, Brexit

:23:16. > :23:20.capital, Wakefield, Mary pray held on despite a strong remain stance.

:23:21. > :23:23.Adduced the Daugherty. The Ukip vote collapsed and the Greens won less

:23:24. > :23:27.than half the number of votes they did two years ago. And there was

:23:28. > :23:29.little room for the new kids on the block but the Yorkshire party could

:23:30. > :23:34.celebrate beating the Liberal Democrats to third place in

:23:35. > :23:37.Wakefield. When I came in here, I hope that get 500 vote and got

:23:38. > :23:40.double that and I'd beat the Lib Dems which isn't something I'm

:23:41. > :23:46.expecting to do and we also bid the Lib Dems in the constituency so we

:23:47. > :23:48.are delighted by that. The night belonged to Labour in Yorkshire.

:23:49. > :23:50.Well yet again the British voter has surprised us all.

:23:51. > :23:53.James Vincent has followed the campaign trail closely over

:23:54. > :23:59.How would you sum up the result, James?

:24:00. > :24:05.If you look at where Theresa May came to Yorkshire to campaign, those

:24:06. > :24:09.red seeds, those target seats for the Conservatives, she missed all of

:24:10. > :24:15.their targets and she could not hit a barn door in Yorkshire. Labour

:24:16. > :24:22.Party gained two from the Lib Dems, two and we have no others, your are

:24:23. > :24:26.either red or blue in Yorkshire these days and when we get to Brexit

:24:27. > :24:27.the gauche Asians, we will make sure we're either together or even more

:24:28. > :24:29.divided. James, thank you. So we leave you on an historic

:24:30. > :24:32.morning after an historic election. The Conservatives are the largest

:24:33. > :24:34.party after a campaign which saw this, a new phenomenon

:24:35. > :24:39.on our streets. Jeremy Corbyn supporters arriving

:24:40. > :24:43.to greet him in huge numbers. Perhaps this was the first sign

:24:44. > :24:49.of what was to come. But none of us saw

:24:50. > :24:54.it coming, did we? Join us for lots more on Look North

:24:55. > :25:03.tonight at lunchtime and 6.30. negotiations, I think duty calls and

:25:18. > :25:25.We better say goodbye, Gus, thanks very much. The former Cabinet
