#SP16 – Edinburgh Results – Predictions and thoughts

We have been speaking to some of the supporters and checkers around the hall here in , as well as a couple of candidates, about the likely results in and around the city.

As we manage to get back to the computer we will add these here!

Nigel Griffiths was formerly Labour MP for Edinburgh South which is a large part of the Edinburgh Southern Holyrood constituency.

He told The Edinburgh Reporter:  “This is a seat where the SNP were the incumbent at the last Scottish election, but I think they are poised to lose it tonight.

“I feel the air is going out of that balloon in Edinburgh Southern and the SNP are losing the momentum there. ”

He is backing Daniel Johnson the Labour candidate who is a shopkeeper in the constituency. We interviewed him here:
