I Will Not Promise What I Cannot

Scotland Is My Country, The Nation That Shaped Me, That Taught Me My Values. A Nation Whose Achievements Inspired And Inspire Me, A Community Whose Failings Drive Me - Drive My Overwhelming Desire To Fight For Social Justice And Equality.

My Scottish Labour Party Is A Crusade - To Fight Poverty, Inequality And Injustice.

Progressive Politics Is Not Something To Be Bolted On To Another Cause.

I Will Not Promise What I Cannot Deliver. And I Will Never Hide The Cost Of What I Propose.

I Got A Very Strong Sense From My Mother, In Particular, That We Are All Equal In The Sight Of God.
