I've been really clear that my first job as leader of the Labour Party and co-leader of the labour movement is to engage with our base.

I've said in the primary race repeatedly that a Labour Party that I lead would be a true red Labour Party, be very clear about its social democratic roots and its social democratic agenda.

It is clear that my predecessor as First Minister is frightening the life out of the Tories and the Labour Party. Long may it continue.

First of all it has never been the case that I have threatened people with expulsion or that I've threatened to throw people out of the Parliamentary Labour Party.

A Labour party is not a debating club, it is a party of action.

Abortion is an issue of conscience for the Labour party.
