Sir Robert Buckland has become the first Conservative MP to lose their seat at the general election as Labour gained the constituency of Swindon South.
Buckland, a former justice secretary, was a high-profile moderate member of the Conservative parliamentary party.
Heidi Alexander, who beat Buckland, said in her victory speech that people had “voted for change” and a Labour government would “change our country for the better”.
She said that “change is coming” and Labour will “press the reset button”.
Alexander previously represented the seat of Lewisham East, which she resigned in 2018 to become deputy mayor of London for transport under Sadiq Khan.
