Neil Findlay will ‘hit the ground running’ if he wins poll
With polls closing in the Scottish Labour leadership race on Wednesday, left challenger Neil Findlay has promised to “hit the ground running” if he tops the vote.
Mr Findlay pledged to put “clear red water” between Labour and the SNP, saying he would take the fight to SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon over the NHS and inequality within days of the vote’s declaration on Saturday.
“I will hit the ground running and I will be there each week until May 2015 and then on to May 2016 taking that fight straight to them,” he wrote on the progressive Labour Hame website.
