Notes from me as we approach 1am BST

We have 2 regions left to declare their MEPs: Scotland & Northern Ireland. Scotland has a few last results to come in but NI doesn't start counting till the morning under STV
Something I hadn’t considered when I tweeted. Scotland has islands.
Huw Edwards just said on the BBC election program that we’re not expecting a declarations of Scottish MEPs until around midday. And because of the STV voting system in Northern Ireland and the counting doesn’t start until the morning, I don’t think that those MEPs to be announced until the evening.
Now with 2 counts left:@brexitparty_uk : 5,244,893@LibDems : 3,366,673@UKLabour : 2,346,441@TheGreenParty : 2,010,328@Conservatives : 1,510,874@Plaid_Cymru : 168,928@theSNP : 590,947@ForChange_Now : 571,716@UKIP : 549,159
