The election results are in for Wales.

We now know the 32 MPs who are representing the nation in Westminster. In Wales Labour has taken 27 seats of the total 32 seats with Plaid Cymru winning four seats and the Liberal Democrats taking a seat.

It means for the first time since 2001 there are no Conservative MPs representing Wales and it has been their worst-ever electoral performance in terms of vote share with just 18% of the vote in Wales.

North Wales will now be represented by six Labour MPs and two from Plaid Cymru. Here is the list of eight MPs - with six new faces off to Westminster.
