The SNP could win all 59 Scottish seats in an election landslide next week, a new poll has suggested.

According to the final Ipsos-MORI poll ahead of the British general election for STV News, support for Nicola Sturgeon's party stands at 54%, which could mean it would clean up in Scotland.

It would also mean the SNP would claim the scalps of Labour's election strategist Douglas Alexander and the Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander.

The poll gives a five-point increase in support to the Conservatives (17%) - the party only got one MP in 2010 - but sees Labour support drop by four percentage points to 20%.

The Liberal Democrats have seen an increase of 1%, putting the party at 5% and the Green Party has dropped two points to 2%. UKIP is polling at 1%.
