Mayor of London Boris Johnson - a candidate for the Uxbridge & South Ruislip parliamentary seat - has been talking to getwestlondon at the election count.

Johnson is at the Brunel University Athletics building where the constituency count is taking place and spoke briefly on video to reporter Will Ackerman.

Mr Johnson told getwestlondon: "You can't count your chickens, but the exit poll is obviously very encouraging.

"I think the Conservatives will do well."

We're not expecting him back for a couple of hours now. Time for Will to get his breath back! Follow our General Election live blog for all the latest.
