MSP Davy Russell beats SNP in a narrow victory, as Reform jumps into third place for Scottish Parliament seat.

The Scottish Labour leader tore into the Nationalists following a bitter by-election race in South Lanarkshire.

The by-election, triggered by the death of sitting SNP MSP Christina McKelvie, was dominated by the rise of Reform, which has been garnering increasing support in council by-elections in Scotland, albeit at lower levels than in England and Wales.
