LABOUR leader Jeremy Corbyn is concluding his 48-hour tour of Scotland tonight in Edinburgh - but the SNP are making their presence felt.
The party's logo is being projected onto the side of the University of Edinburgh's McEwan Hall, where Corbyn is expected to speak at a rally later.

There has been tension between the SNP and Labour as Corbyn made his trip up to Scotland.
There has been talk that after the December 12 election, Labour may need the SNP to back them as part of an informal agreement between the parties. Any kind of agreement would likely hinge on the details for a second Scottish independence referendum, but Corbyn's statements on when such a vote could talk place have varied over the last two days.
SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon has been critical in response, saying "Labour would have big questions to answer if they gave up a chance at UK government in order to block Scotland’s right to choose our own future".
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
