SDLP leader Colum Eastwood voted at Model Primary School in Londonderry, while Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth was seen leaving a polling station in Anglesey. Scottish Conservative leader Douglas Ross voted with his family at Fogwatt Hall in Moray, and Lib Dem leader Ed Davey and Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer also participated in the electoral process. With most leaders voting before noon, attention now turns to voter turnout and early results expected later tonight.
