"For the Labour Party it matters that we win in Scotland to have the mandate - to have the authority - to take the whole of the UK forward."The leader would not put a number on what"significant" looked like.Campaigning today, Starmer will stress the importance of “respect for a day’s graft” – accusing SNP candidate Katy Loudon of hiring workers on zero hours contracts.

We were founded to seek power and use it to serve working people, and we will do it again.” “Keir Starmer and Anas Sarwar have had ample opportunity to show they will stand up for people in this constituency by backing the SNP’s calls for an energy rebate and tax relief for mortgage holders – but they’ve refused to do so every time.
