15:07Now PlayingLabour recorded a shock victory in the Holyrood by-election, seizing the Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse seat from the SNP.
The win comes despite Scotland's First Minister John Swinney having declared the contest to be a two-horse race between the SNP and Nigel Farage's Reform.
Reform UK sources expected the party to come third in the by-election and both Labour and the SNP feared a possible surge for the seat from Nigel Farage's group.
