SOT, Cas Macgregor, physiotherpaist: "For us in Scotland I suppose it's not just about Brexit, but it's also about independence. So I voted for Scottish independence so we could make our own decisions and then to be faced with the prospect of leaving the European Union when we voted to remain here is a very bitter pill to be faced with swallowing."

SOT, Angus Robertson, parliamentary administrator: "I mean that margins are so fine in so many seats, probably not in Glasgow and this constituency but across our country. More Tories means more chance we're taken out (of the EU) it's as simple as that and that's why it's so important. Fifty votes could change the outcome, in different seats across the country."

SOT, Valerie Gauld, retired teacher: "This is important for independence, this election but more than anything this government that we have is just, is I can't put into words how catastrophic they are. The Tory government that has been in power for 10 years have caused all sorts of havoc for the most vulnerable members of our society here in Britain."

Scotland’s First Minister and leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP) Nicola Sturgeon voted at her local polling station in Glasgow on Thursday.
She arrived with SNP candidate for Glasgow East, David Linden, who is vying for re-election in the constituency. He won the seat in 2017 with a majority of just 75 votes or 0.2 per cent.
After voting, Sturgeon posed for photos with her husband and Chief Executive of the SNP, Peter Murrell.
Angus Robertson, a parliamentary administrator touched on the fine margins on the seat, saying "fifty votes could change the outcome in different seats across the country."
Scottish Independence and Brexit seemed key aspects for voters at the polling station.
Physiotherapist Cas Macgregor said, "I voted for Scottish independence so we could make our own decisions and then to be faced with the prospect of leaving the European Union when we voted to remain here is a very bitter pill to be faced with swallowing."
Polling stations opened at 0700 GMT in 650 constituencies across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Results are expected to start coming in after polls close at 2200 GMT.
This is the third general election in less than five years.
