- Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour gains seats in extraordinary turnaround with 261 seats.
- Prime Minister May goes to Buckingham Palace to seek permission to form a minority government.
- Northern Irish party DUP set to support the Tories — but not in a formal coalition.

LONDON — It is a hung parliament. In one of the most remarkable election results Britain has ever seen, Prime Minister Theresa May’s Conservative party only managed to win 318 seats, eight seats short of a majority.
Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party gained 29 seats having initially been as far as 20% behind the Conservatives in opinion polls conducted just weeks before Thursday night’s election.
May has refused to resign as prime minister and is due to go to Buckingham Palace at 12.30 BST (7.30 a.m. ET) where she will seek permission from the Queen to form a minority government.
The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), a Northern Irish Party with 10 seats in Westminster, is set to back the Conservatives in an informal relationship — not a formal coalition government.
