SCOTTISH Labour leader Kezia Dugdale has pledged to continue her fight against austerity and to expose the SNP despite being punished at last month’s Holyrood elections.

The party tabled a motion in the Scottish parliament on Thursday afternoon to introduce a 50p top rate of tax for those earning over £150,000.

The policy is aimed at wealth redistribution and alleviating spending cuts to public services when Holyrood is granted its new taxation powers in 2017.
