00:00This is a landmark moment for the Scottish National Party.
00:03We've been in government for 19 years and it is very clear now from the early results
00:08that we will emerge as the leading party in Scottish politics by a very significant margin.
00:13So I'm delighted that we find ourselves in that position.
00:16I'm deeply grateful to the people of Scotland for the trust and confidence they have expressed in us.
00:21And I look forward, subject to the discussions that will go in Parliament,
00:25to serve the people of Scotland as First Minister in the years to come.
