The Scottish Labour leader will accuse “complacent” SNP MPs of failing to defend the interests of voters north of the border.
Scotland will “lead the way” in helping Labour win the next general election, Anas Sarwar will say on Tuesday.
But he will use Tuesday’s in conversation event at the think tank to stress that “Scottish Labour MPs will not just be there to make up the numbers and to help get Labour over the line” as Keir Starmer seeks to become the UK’s next prime minister. He will also pledge that “devolution will be returned to its founding principles of co-operation, solidarity and delivering for the people of Scotland”.
“Scottish Labour MPs at Westminster will be a strong voice for the people of Scotland and will use the power of government to represent the interests of the Scottish people.”
