Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has launched his campaign north of the border by stressing the significance of Scotland to his ambitions for power.
The Leader of the Opposition, who joined Anas Sarwar in Glasgow today, said: “Scotland’s voice is vital, absolutely vital.”
He continued: “I know there are voters here in Scotland who wanted in the past to get the Tories out but felt that they couldn’t vote for Labour because they didn’t think that we would win.
“Well, we are a changed Labour Party and we now have that opportunity to kick the Tories out but you have to take that opportunity by voting Labour.
“Because there is no change without Scotland, there is no Labour without Scotland.
“Scotland is central to the mission of the next Labour Government.”
