Since an exit poll at 10pm projected a hung parliament, Britons have been using Google to answer their pressing election questions.
Here the Press Association answers some of the popular questions asked during election night so far, according to Google Trends.
Who has won the election?
Counting is still under way, so it is impossible to say just yet. But it looks like no side will win an outright majority – in other words, accumulated enough MPs to form a government by themselves.
It is a tight race but the exit poll projected that the Conservatives would have the most seats.
If this scenario materialises the Conservatives would not have “won” the election – and could find other parties able to keep them out of Downing Street by forming a coalition government.

A minority government is when a party in the House of Commons seeks to rule despite having fewer MPs than the sum of all the other parties put together.This could happen if the Conservatives fail to win more than half the seats in the Commons (326 or more) and do not form a coalition with other parties to make up the difference.What time will the votes be counted?
