Defeated MPs

Main article: List of MPs who lost their seat in the 2019 United Kingdom general election
This table gives the final allegiance of the defeated MP (first column), and their other, 2017, allegiance as a faint background shade where applicable, which is the value used for the above statistics, save for those marked contesting... (the headlining statistics hinge on the first seat, rather than the candidature seat)

Footnotes

    Notes

    1. Given that Sinn Féin MPs do not take their seats and the Speaker and deputies do not vote, the number of MPs needed for a majority is, in practice, slightly lower. Sinn Féin won 7 seats, meaning a practical majority requires at least 320 MPs.
    2. Suspended at time of election
    3. Elected as Labour
    4. Elected as Labour
    5. Hermon was an Ulster Unionist Party MP between 2001 and February 2010, and stood as an "independent unionist" candidate in the 2010, 2015, and 2017 elections. The UUP candidate was Alan Chambers, himself a former independent unionist
    6. Elected as Conservative
