SCOTLAND needs a Budget to end austerity and “deliver a plan for investment and growth,” Labour’s leader in Scotland Anas Sarwar said today.

He said Chancellor Rachel Reeves’s Budget tomorrow “must continue the work of turning the page on those lost Tory years, fixing the foundations and rebuilding our country.”

“Scots know how bad the Tories were, the damage they caused, and why it was so important to remove them from power,” Mr Sarwar said.
