Scottish party leaders cast votes as public go to the polls

It was a family affair for some of Scotland’s most recognisable politicians, with children and even pets joining them at the polling stations.

First minister and SNP leader John Swinney cast his ballot at Burrelton Village Hall, Perthshire, accompanied by his 13-year-old son Matthew.

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar was joined by wife Furheen and son Aliyan when voting in the south side of Glasgow.

Scottish Conservative leader Douglas Ross held hands with his wife Krystle as they carried their two young sons to the polling station at Fogwatt in Moray.

Dog photos have become popular with photographers on election day – and in Edinburgh, Scottish Lib Dem leader Alex Cole-Hamilton obliged by bringing his cockapoo Bramble to the polling station at Davidson’s Mains Parish Church.

Scottish Greens co-leaders Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater were voting in Glasgow and Edinburgh respectively.
