A New Act to Mend Broken Britain?
Federal settlement the only way to redistribute wealth and stop country breaking apart, says Scottish Labour

SCOTTISH Labour leader Kezia Dugdale called yesterday for a progressive federal solution to mend divisions between Scotland and England with the union in “terrible peril” because of the Tories and SNP.

Ms Dugdale put forward proposals for a “people’s constitutional convention” to decide a new political settlement which could see increased powers handed to the devolved nations as well as regions in England.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has also called for such a convention.
