The Scottish National Party (SNP) won a landslide in Scotland on May 8, destroying the Labour party north of the border in a historic leap forward which could increase pressure for a fresh referendum on independence.

The nationalists won 56 of 59 parliamentary seats in Scotland in the May 7 general election, final results showed, up from just six at the last vote in 2010.

Scottish party has "historic success" in British election

LONDON -- Scottish National Party (SNP) leader Nicola Sturgeon has said that voters in Scotland lost trust in the Labor Party, and "want to an end to austerity."

Her party, according to preliminary results for the British general election, won almost all seats in Scotland.

David Cameron's conservative Tory Party are in the lead in the Great Britain elections. It is projected that the formation led by the current PM will get 316 out of the 650 available seats in the London Parliament. The number, however, is under the minimum majority needed - 326.

The UK Labour Party will most probably be coming in second with 239 MPs.

The main parties in the UK have achieved an agreement on the devolution of further powers to the Scottish Parliament.

Britain's main political parties struck what they said was a historic deal to grant Scotland tax-raising powers and greater autonomy to try to satisfy disappointed separatists who lost an independence vote two months ago.
   

Scotland's ruling Scottish National Party (SNP) on Nov. 14 crowned a new leader to build on a surge of support following a defeat in September's independence referendum that still looks set to result in greater autonomy.
