The Parliament has been very clear to me, as has the Labour Party, that there have never been any allegations or complaints.
This leadership contest should have been a wide debate, rooted in courage, humility and the imagination to become a modern political party for workers and working class communities in Scotland.
I think when people make vexatious complaints or do hit jobs in the media, then that undermines genuine concerns and cases.
Scotland’s young people deserve a Scottish Labour Party who will stand up to billionaires and the wealthy elite.
