My Scottish Labour Party is a crusade - to fight poverty, inequality and injustice.
While I'm leader, nothing will be off limits - there will not be one policy, one rule, one way of working which cannot be changed.
What I will say will not always please you, but what I say will always be honest and true and how I genuinely see it.
Telling the truth, and confronting the challenge, is what politics is about.
Scotland cannot be the only 'something for nothing' country in the world.
I'm pretty proud of having completed a marathon myself, so I can only imagine the pride that real athletes feel when they are picked for the Olympic or the Paralympic Games.
