Buckinghamshire election: All you need to know
Of the eight constituencies in Buckinghamshire which were Conservative, only two stayed blue: Beaconsfield and Mid Buckinghamshire.
Among the losses was prominent Brexiteer Steve Baker, beaten by Labour in Wycombe.
He said: "I just feel terribly sad for our country because Labour are going to be a disaster.
"I wanted to win this, I fought to win... but for me personally, thank God I'm free and it's over. I'm glad."
He added to his surprising admission by saying: "I did this for duty. Being a member of parliament is, of course, long hours... a lot of abuse. My house is like Fort Knox, and, you know, enough is enough.
"I would have been glad to continue and serve the people of Wycombe... it was often a joy... but I will not be coming back."
Mr Baker lost his seat to Labour's Emma Reynolds who won with 16,035 votes, a 35.9% share.
He had held the seat since 2010 and it had been Conservative since 1951.
