Stay tuned for live coverage of the European election results, and their aftermath, from 2100.
2057, JGF: Harriet Harman is seated in the BBC studio. She really has been a trooper for the Labour party in the last few days.
2058, PH: Just before the results come in, it’s worth noting that turnout was 43 percet – a record low for Euro elections.
2059, JGF: The rumour reaching me is that projections show that Labour will finish third behind UKIP.
2100, PH: Sky showing dramatic footage of police clashing with anti-fascist campaigners trying to enter the Town Hall in Manchester. Nick Griffin is there.
2103, PH: Fraser’s on Sky, folks. Tune in, but don’t leave Coffee House!
2106, PH: The debate on Sky is whether we’ll see a BNP victory anywhere – Manchester seems like the most likely place.
2111, JGF: If that projection I mentioned earlier is right then, like everything else so far in this leadership crisis, the result is neither one thing nor the other.
