Labour Party victorious in Rutherglen by-election
Scottish Labour's deputy leader Jackie Baillie and Labour MP Ian Murray have been marking the party's election of a second MP to Westminster.
The lack of a second microphone could not contain the pair's excitement during the celebrations in the Rutherglen and Hamilton West constituency.
Michael Shanks took the Westminster seat with 17,845 votes - more than double the number polled by the SNP's Katy Loudon.
The by-election was called after former SNP MP Margaret Ferrier was ousted by her constituents for breaking Covid rules.
