The SNP is the third largest group at Westminster with 35 MPs

SNP Westminster group leader Ian Blackford has announced his front-bench leadership team following the election.

The SNP is the third largest party at Westminster with 35 MPs, despite losing seats in the vote on 8 June.

The 12-member, gender-balanced group leadership team is made up entirely of members first elected in 2015.

Mr Blackford's deputy leader, Kirsty Blackman, takes on the role of economy spokesperson in the reshuffle, with several other members getting new jobs.

The SNP won the majority of seats north of the border in the general election, although they dropped 21 seats and suffered the loss of key figures including Alex Salmond and group leader Angus Robertson.
