Nigel Farage has won in Clacton, with the Reform UK leader declaring his party is 'coming for Labour'.

The Reform UK leader was projected to claim victory in the coastal town, which is traditionally a Tory stronghold, ahead of polling day.

Farage received 21,225 votes, leaving him with a majority of 8,405.

The result was announced just before 3:30am, with Conservative candidate Giles Watling losing his seat to Mr Farage in what's been described as a 'landslide victory'.

It's the party leader's eighth attempt to become an MP, having previously run in two by-elections and five general elections as a UKIP candidate before leading Reform UK.
