UK Liberal Democrat leader Swinson loses seat to Scottish National Party

The leader of Britain's pro-European Union Liberal Democrats lost her parliamentary seat to the Scottish National Party on Friday.

Jo Swinson, who only became the party's leader in July, had campaigned to overturn Britain's 2016 vote to leave the EU. She lost the seat by just 149 votes.
