A radical agenda for Scotland will return Labour to power, Leonard says
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn shakes hands with Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard at Scottish Labour's Annual Conference in Dundee, today

LABOUR can return to government at both Westminster and Holyrood if it advocates a transformation of Scotland’s economy and workplaces, Richard Leonard will tell Scottish Labour activists today.

The Scottish Labour leader will use his address to the party’s annual conference to place his party foursquare behind workers fighting for their jobs.

He will say Labour’s “progressive agenda for workers’ rights” can “challenge the gig economy” and shift the balance of power at work.
