How Glasgow voted in the European Election

It feels like it's been a long wait since popping by the polling station on Thursday, yet the European Election results are now in.

The headline news in Scotland is the SNP is on track for its best ever European election results - with First Minister Nicola Sturgeon declaring it "emphatically clear" that Scotland has rejected Brexit.

With almost all the results in from Scotland, the SNP seems likely to win three of the six Scottish MEP seats - with Scottish Labour losing its two MEPs.

Results from 31 of the 32 councils across Scotland showed the SNP, who fought the election campaign on a strong pro-European platform, had polled 37.7%.

The party's previous best Euro election result was 32.6% in 1994.

But how did Glasgow vote?
