POLITICAL leaders in Scotland have made their final pitches to voters ahead of tomorrow’s Holyrood election, promising recovery from the coronavirus crisis and action on the climate emergency. 

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar and the Scottish Greens’ co-leaders have said each of their parties offer different visions from the SNP. 

Mr Sarwar, whose party is looking to overtake the Conservatives in second place, believes that he represents the future of Scotland as he sets his sights on making Scottish Labour a “credible opposition.”
