Findlay lays case for a left leader

MSP Neil Findlay laid out a radical new policy agenda for Scottish Labour at a packed meeting of the party’s left-wing group following the resignation of Johann Lamont at the weekend.

Activists at the Campaign for Socialism (CfS) conference in Glasgow supported calls for a left candidate to challenge for the Scottish leadership.

Neil Findlay told the meeting that Scottish Labour needed to work “hand in glove with our allies in the trade unions” to create policies which would put “clear red water” between the party and the SNP.
