Gordon Brown among political figures at Darling service

A memorial service for the former Labour chancellor Alistair Darling has taken place at St Mary's Episcopal Cathedral in Edinburgh.

Among those paying their respects were former prime ministers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, First Minister Humza Yousaf and Labour Leader Keir Starmer.

Lord Darling died last month at the age of 70 after a short illness.
