The SNP has won a fifth successive Scottish Parliament election, but fallen short of its target of an overall majority at Holyrood.
The party won 58 seats, with 65 needed for a majority.
Labour, who not so long ago harboured ambitions of toppling the SNP, finished a distant second on 17 seats - tied with Reform, who made their electoral breakthrough in Scotland.
