RICHARD LEONARD has called on Scottish voters to think beyond constitutional matters as election day looms.
Speaking during a visit to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh, the Scottish Labour leader reinforced the message that this week’s election “is not just about Brexit” by focusing on investment in public services and the NHS.
Labour has previously promised that £100 billion will be invested north of the border under a Corbyn government, which Mr Leonard has said will contribute to the recruitment of more doctors.
