UK election: How Boris Johnson's Conservatives won Labour's 'red wall' heartlands.
A few miles up the road, the constituency of Don Valley elected a Conservative for the first time since 1922. Great Grimsby turned blue after voting Labour since 1945. And even former Prime Minister Tony Blair's old seat of Sedgefield was swallowed up by the Conservative advance.Dennis Skinner, Labour party MP listens to speeches on the third day of the Labour party conference in Liverpool, north west England.
Flipping these Labour strongholds was key to Johnson securing his party's biggest win since 1987. For Labour, the night was a catastrophe. Its veteran socialist leader, Jeremy Corbyn, led the party to its worst performance at a nationwide general election since the 1930s.
