Your support makes all the difference.The SNP have secured a record a landslide result in Scotland taking 56 of Scotland’s 59 seats, relegating Labour to one seat, along with the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats.
In one of the most surprising defeats of the night, Douglas Alexander, Labour’s shadow foreign secretary, lost his seat to a 20-year-old SNP candidate, who is the UK’s youngest MP for centuries. The Scottish Labour leader, Jim Murphy, also lost his seat.
One of the most well-known names returning to Westminster is Alex Salmond, who won the Gordon constituency from the Liberal Democrats.
