Sinn Fein has won the most Northern Ireland seats at Westminster for the first time.
It marks a historic hat-trick for the party which is already the largest in local government and at Stormont.
Sinn Fein held its seven seats, and will pile pressure on the new Labour government to set a timeline for a referendum on Irish unity.

The Democratic Unionist Party lost three of its eight seats, including Lagan Valley, which its former leader, Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, had held for 27 years.
Sir Jeffrey resigned from the party in April and is currently awaiting trial on historical sex charges.
But the fall of the DUP‘s Ian Paisley in North Antrim was the result no one saw coming.
It is the first time in 54 years the seat has not been held by “the house of Paisley”.
His late father, the Reverend Ian Paisley, who founded the DUP, first won it in 1970.
Traditional Unionist Voice leader, Jim Allister, who fiercely opposes power-sharing in Northern Ireland, pulled off a shock victory.
The TUV have an election pact with Reform UK – although Nigel Farage endorsed Mr Paisley.
Sinn Fein now holds the largest number of seats in local government, at Stormont and at Westminster.
But there has not been a significant change in terms of Unionist/Nationalist vote share.
Of the three seats lost by the DUP, one was won by the Ulster Unionists, one by the Traditional Unionist Voice and one by an independent Unionist.
