Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar took to the campaign trail to support Scottish Labour candidate for Edinburgh North and Leith, Tracy Gilbert, just off Leith Walk Edinburgh.
When the Prime Minister announced the date for a General Election, Mr Sarwar said: “Scotland is crying out for change, and it falls to Labour to deliver the change we need.
“After 17 years of SNP failure and 14 years of Tory chaos, Scotland has a chance to deliver a government that is on the side of the working people of Scotland – with Scottish MPs at its heart.
“A UK Labour government with Scottish Labour MPs will boot the Tories out of office, maximise Scotland’s influence, bring down bills, make work pay and deliver the change that Scotland needs.”
