Scottish Parliamentary Election 2021 – Labour focusing on national recovery

As all the major parties get their campaigns underway today, Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar and the Deputy Leader, Jackie Baillie will promote the party’e election message – a National Recovery Plan.

Mr Sarwar, said: “This election campaign must focus on solutions which will deliver a fairer recovery and a stronger Scotland.

“Over the next six weeks and beyond, I will focus on what unites us, not what divides us.

“Working to deliver a national recovery plan will be Scottish Labour’s only priority.

“We can’t rely on Boris Johnson’s Tories to deliver a recovery that works for everyone because they are happy to return to the failed economic model pre-Covid.

“And we can’t rely on the SNP to prioritise recovery because it has already made clear it will prioritise a referendum.

“It’s only by using both votes for Scottish Labour that people can guarantee we have a parliament focused on recovery.”
