Labour's Henry Tufnell has been elected as MP for Mid and South Pembrokeshire. He has defeated Stephen Crabb, another former secretary of state for Wales. The Conservative vote share is down 22%.

This seat was particularly interesting as, under the boundary review, it combines two traditionally Conservative constituencies. However, Labour was expected to take this seat at this election, according to the most recent polls.

No poll had predicted anything but a Labour victory in this seat.

Hanna Andersen (Women's Equality Party) - 254 Alistair Ronald Cameron (Lib Dem) - 2,372 Stephen Crabb (Conservatives) - 14,627 Stuart James Marchant (Reform UK) - 7,828 James Purchase (Green Party) - 1,654 Vusi Siphika (Independent) - 427 Cris Tomos (Plaid Cymru) - 2,962 Henry Tufnell (Labour) - 16,505

Where does the constituency cover?

It includes Pembroke Dock, Haverfordwest, Milford Haven, Tenby and wards Amroth, Lampeter Velfrey, Letterston, St David's and Hundleton.

Will the Starmers be the first prime ministerial family since the Wilsons not to live in Downing Street?
The move to Downing Street is a symbolic moment for any incoming prime minister, the most obvious proof of your drastically changed situation. You do not merely run the shop, as Mrs Thatcher said, you live above it. Downing Street is one of the most prestigious political residences on Earth, perhaps second only to the White House. For five years, barring calamity, it is yours, for you to decorate with all the golden Lulu Lytle wallpaper you like.

Most significant is the return of Alan Milburn, Blair’s health secretary, who will advise his successor, Wes Streeting, on reform of the NHS.
