UK election: Tories gain Darlington from Labour
|
The latest vote count results in Darlington showed that the Conservatives have snatched the seat from Labour, as the misery for Corbyn’s party deepens.
Labour’s Phil Wilson, who was defending a majority of more than 6,000 votes in Sedgefield, tweeted out: “For UK Labour leadership to blame Brexit for the result is mendacious nonsense. Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership was a bigger problem. To say otherwise is delusional. The Party’s leadership went down like a lead balloon on the doorstep. Labour’s leadership needs to take responsibility.”
The tweet already shows that Labour seems to have conceded defeat in the autumn election.
The GBP/USD pair holds the recent rally, now trading close to 1.3500 amid favorable UK election results.
