Senior Labour figure tells me he fears Labour has lost all seven seats in Glasgow #ge2015

A resounding SNP win is predicted in East Lothian for veteran candidate George Kerevan. Labour activists say their prospects are "grim" as it looks as though the SNP have 45% of the vote to their estimated 31%.

It means sitting Labour MP Fiona O'Donnell has lost her seat.

Most of the ballot boxes are here and the rest will be in before midnight. We should be declaring the Stirling seat around 02:30.

Whatever happens, this constituency will have a new MP, as the former MP for this area, Anne McGuire, has retired. She said in the local press: "I came in as a Blair babe and I'm leaving as a Granny."

This is the 17th target seat for SNP so they are quietly confident they could be successful here as they have a local SNP MSP Bruce Crawford and the largest party in the local council.

Lib Dems pretty quiet down here in Kelso, incredibly tense Conservative and SNP #GE2015

Political commentator Iain Macwhirter says: "The prospect of the SNP getting maybe 50 seats in Scotland on less than 50% is a vagary of the first-past-the-post electoral system.

"It does not necessarily mean that if you had a referendum tomorrow the result would be very much different from last time.

"However, the sheer scale of the result will have significant political implications. This will be a very significant result."

Mr McLeish continues: "While it might be construed down south as anti-SNP rhetoric, a lot of Scots on the doorsteps don't take too kindly to it."

He adds: "If the SNP really do get 58 seats, it would be a political game changer."

The Edinburgh International Conference centre is the glamorous location for the capital's count. It even has a champagne bar but unfortunately it is closed.

Back in 2010, the SNP came fourth in all but one of Edinburgh's five parliamentary constituencies. Labour took four and the Lib Dems one.

Fast forward to the 2011 Scottish Parliament elections it was a completely different picture with the SNP gaining five of Holyrood's six constituencies.

However, at the referendum there was decisive No vote with 61% against independence.

So the question is will the affluent suburbs of Morningside and The Grange have an SNP MP? Once it would have been inconceivable; no longer...

Argyll and Bute has two helicopters at work tonight; one for the isles of Gigha, Islay, Jura and Colonsay, the other for Iona, Mull, Coll and Tiree.

An SNP activist shows sartorial support for her party at the Perth and North Perthshire count.

Political commentator Iain Macwhirter of the Herald told BBC Scotland: "If it is as indicated in the exit poll that the SNP get 58 out of 59 seats in Scotland then Boris Johnson would probably say that's 'Jockalypse Now'.

"It certainly would be earth-shattering if that were to happen.

"However, I'm not picking up from the SNP a huge amount of triumphalism. In fact a number of them are trying, rather belatedly, to manage expectations.

"I think the 58 out if 59 is going to be far-fetched at the end of the night."
