I’ve just thanked Labour’s staff. They are a credit to our party, and, driven by a passion to serve, they are a credit to our country.

FARAGE QUITS... FOR NOW
Nigel Farage has resigned as leader of anti-EU party UKIP after failing in his bid to be elected as an MP.
He adds however that he may stand again as the party's leader in September.
Hope that's clear.

CLEGG RESIGNS
Nick Clegg has resigned as leader of the Liberal Democrats, saying the result was "immeasurably more crushing and unkind" than he could have ever feared.
The Lib Dems lost 46 seats, although Clegg retained his.
He said it was a dark hour for his party and the most crushing since its founding.
Clegg added it was "simply heartbreaking" that many of his friends and colleagues had lost their seats.
He said history books would judge the Lib Dems more kindly and that the party's role in coalition had made the country "fairer, stronger, greener and more liberal than it was five years ago".

BREAKING...
Ed Miliband has resigned as leader of the Labour Party.
He becomes the third leader in an hour to resign following the election results.
Miliband told supporters: "I'm so sorry for all those colleagues who lost their seats. They are standard bearers for our party, they always have been, they always will be."
He also appealed for the party's next leadership contest to be conducted properly.
"Conduct this leadership election with the same decency, civility and comradeship that we believe this country should be run with," he said.
Adding a touch of defiancy, he said: "Labour has come back before and this party will come back again."
