SNP win election one seat short of majority - BBC News
Nicola Sturgeon's party secures 64 seats at Holyrood with the Scottish Conservatives coming second on 31.
Having secured a fourth term in power for the SNP, Nicola Sturgeon is not short of things to do as first minister.

She has to form a government - that could be another SNP-only administration, unless she wants to explore a more formal arrangement with the independence-supporting Greens to secure an outright majority.

She has to reshuffle her ministers, with four cabinet posts - including that of health secretary - needing filled as a result of retirements.

There are also important decisions that need to be taken on coronavirus - with a further easing of restrictions due on 17 May, plans to reopen international travel to consider and concern over Covid cases in Moray to address.

Ms Sturgeon has insisted that dealing with the pandemic and its aftermath will be her immediate priority - although clearly she intends to press the case for another independence referendum too.

There are also formalities - being sworn in with the other 128 MSPs on Thursday, before putting herself forward in parliament for re-election as first minister the following week.
