All the big name Tory MPs predicted to lose seats after General Election exit poll

Jacob Rees Mogg, Penny Mordaunt and Jeremy Hunt are forecast to LOSE their seats in the General Election tonight - in a brutal blow to the Conservative Party. BBC chief economics correspondent Dharshini David is at a leisure centre in Godalming and Ash, the seat of Chancellor Jeremy Hunt.

She tells Radio 4 the exit poll suggests there is only a 19% chance of him keeping his seat. He would be the first chancellor in modern history to lose his seat, if that is right. There are some "pretty shocked faces" from Hunt's camp in the leisure centre this evening, she adds.

Other Cabinet Minister the exit poll suggests are likely to lose to Labour are Grant Shapps on Welwyn Hatfield and Johnny Mercer in Plymouth Moor View. Alex Chalk and Lucy Frazer could also be at arisk, with seats 'too close to call' including Richard Holden, Victoria Atkins, Mark Harper and Steven Barclay.

Steve Baker, Iain Duncan Smith, Mel Stride and Chris Philip are all at risk too, Sky News reports. Mr Hunt is 19 per cent to win his seat after the exit poll, with Mordaunt 25 per cent, and Rees Mogg higher - but not at the 50 per cent threshold. Ms Mordaunt was 8/11 to hold her seat of Portsmouth North but is now 7/4 behind Labour’s Amanda Martin.

Ms Martin has shortened from even-money into 2/5 in the same period. Mr Rees-Mogg has held the North East Somerset and Hanham seat since its creation in 2010, but he has drifted to 10/3 from 13/8 a few weeks ago, with Labour firm favourites at 1/5.

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “With talk of a Labour landslide since the General Election was announced in May we would have expected to see a bit of a Conservative revival, especially among their big name MPs in southern constituencies where they are historically strong.

“However, if anything, the opposite has occurred, and confidence appears low in key figures like Penny Mordaunt, Liz Truss and Jacob Rees-Mogg, who have all drifted in the betting in the last few weeks, so much so that they are now predicted to lose their seats to Labour.

“Truss has seen the most marked drift, out from 1/4 at the beginning of June to her current odds of 6/5, while Mordaunt is 7/4 from 8/11, and the Tories could lose control of North East Somerset and Hanham for the first time, with Rees-Mogg out to 10/3 in the betting from 13/8.”
