There is now a second recount in Hastings & Rye, the seat of Home Secretary Amber Rudd

This is expected to take about an hour and a half. Ms Rudd is declining to speak to any media until the result is known, according to our reporter who is at the count.

The two parties are currently in discussion, DUP leader Arlene Foster said. And the Conservatives, as the government in power before the general election, get the first attempt at forming an administration.
In theory, if they fail to secure DUP backing, Labour could attempt to form its own minority government. But this is unlikely.
