‘People now realising indy ref II isn’t the only answer’

KEZIA DUGDALE warned Scots yesterday that only a Labour government would work “for the many and not the privileged few” as attentions turned squarely on June 8.

As the dust settled from the local election campaign, the Scottish Labour leader told supporters in Rutherglen that “the shine is coming off the SNP as they realise it only has one answer for everything — a referendum on independence.”

And she warned those thinking of voting Tory to send a message to SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon that the only result would be “send Theresa May back into Downing Street.”
