Wendy Chamberlain has been elected as the MP for Fife North East, beating the SNP's Stephen Gethins by 1,316 votes.

The Liberal Democrats overturned a two-vote majority to take the formerly Scottish National Party-held seat.

Tony Miklinski of the Conservative Party came third and Labour's Wendy Haynes came fourth.

Voter turnout was up by 4.1 percentage points since the last general election.

Nearly 46,000 people, roughly three-quarters of those eligible to vote, went to polling stations across the area on Thursday, in the first December general election since 1923.

One of the four candidates, Wendy Haynes (Labour), lost her £500 deposit after failing to win 5% of the vote.
