The first to declare was Camborne and Redruth where Labour’s Perran Moon won with 19,360 votes, a share of 40.5%.

He said: “Here in Cornwall this evening a new Cornish red wall has been established.”

Shortly before 05:30 BST Labour’s Jayne Kirkham was declared the winner of the Truro and Falmouth seat with 20,783 votes, a share of 41.3%.

Shortly afterwards, St Austell and Newquay also declared a Labour win for Noah Law with 15,958 votes, a share of 34.1%.

In 1997 he became the first non-Conservative MP for the St Ives constituency for 68 years and held the seat until the Conservatives won in 2015.

On Friday morning he said: “It will be an honour for me to be a voice for the area I know so well and love, and to make sure that voice is heard in the corridors of power; and to be a voice to those who have been dealt an unfair hand in life, to combat those injustices and fight for a fair deal for our area.”

North Cornwall declared a win for Ben Maguire of the Liberal Democrats with a 48% vote share, replacing Conservative Scott Mann who was the constituency’s MP since May 2015.

The last Cornish constituency to declare was South East Cornwall at about 06:45 which was won by Anna Gelderd for Labour with 32% share of the vote.

This seat had been held by Conservative Sheryll Murray since May 2010.
