Liberal Democrat Energy Secretary, Ed Davey has lost his Kingston and Surbiton constituency to Conservative James Berry.

This seat was one of the most marginal in the country in 1997, but Davey built up a robust majority.

This is yet another major loss for the Lib Dems, with the results not going in their favour so far.

The party currently have only 5.6% of votes, as well as a -13.1 vote share change since 2010.
