Good speech and appreciate that he wishes well to a new administration. Jeremy Hunt seems to be a decent person.

[@hayleypayne2251]

Happy for the Labour win, but I loved this speech. I'll be using it in my persuasive language lessons, so thank you for that Mr Hunt.

The Lib Dem candidate looks devastated

[@BossySwan]

Good

[@pawelpow]

I'm glad labour won, however also happy for Hunt. He seems like a decent guy from what I've seen and if he was chancellor before all the tory mess, they would have been doing so much better!

Hunt sounded like he was about to cry.

[@charliestevens9639]

This was a remarkable result that needs further analysis. Every major poll said Jeremy Hunt would lose this seat, but he proved them wrong. What swung those undecided voters back to him?

[@BossySwan]

He’s a grafter

Congratulations Mr Hunt glad you survived this, be easier in opposition but frustrating to watching labour destroy the fiscal progress you and the PM were starting to make. People have short memories particularly those who benefited from the furlough scheme! Great acceptance speech.

[@eskimomax5782]

You seem to have short memory of the extent of corruption and economic destruction that we also saw under the government he participated in!
