Michael Marra: “We’ve lost definition as to who the Labour Party is.”

We must change our culture. And if anyone thinks that the negative briefing this last week will win us a single vote, then they are dangerously deluded."

We need parliament to deliver for working class communities and that won’t happen with service cuts and job losses on the back of years of SNP mismanagement.

A Scottish Labour Party I lead will hold the SNP to account, oppose these cuts and seek a fairer funding settlement for local government.

I’m not interested in pointing fingers. Let’s get round the table and agree a set of proposals Parliament can enact to hit that target in 2030.
