Former Chancellor Jeremy Hunt and his family have vacated 11 Downing Street following the Conservative Party's landslide election defeat. Despite the party losing over 240 seats, Hunt narrowly retained his Godalming, Surrey seat by 900 votes, prompting tears of relief. Mr Hunt was joined by his wife, Lucia, their three children, and his dog, as they made their way to a waiting car, and left the street known as his official residence since 2022. This marks the end of his tenure as Chancellor, as Labour celebrates a resounding victory. Hunt's emotional response highlighted the significance of his personal victory amidst party defeat.
