My biggest ambition is to bring together what happens in the real world with what politicians talk about.

I will not promise what I cannot deliver. And I will never hide the cost of what I propose.

My Scottish Labour Party is a crusade - to fight poverty, inequality and injustice.

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.

We shall seek debate without division or rancour.

Progressive politics is not something to be bolted on to another cause.

We must listen and learn, show humility and seek again to talk for and to people's ambitions and concerns.
