The Edinburgh Reporter has spent a great deal of time in recent weeks meeting the candidates for all seats across the city, and at the Edinburgh count last night we met a few of the candidates before and after the results were announced.
The new MPs for the next parliament are:
Deidre Brock SNP – Edinburgh North and Leith
Ian Murray Labour – Edinburgh South
Joanna Cherry SNP – Edinburgh South West
Tommy Sheppard SNP Edinburgh East
Michelle Thomson SNP Edinburgh West
Here is a selection of the interviews we conducted so that you can get to know your new MP or reacquaint yourself with Ian Murray who was MP for Edinburgh South in the last parliament, and who has the dubious honour of being the only Labour MP in Scotland.
