YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“Under the current leadership of the Labour Party at a UK level, the party has no chance of making any significant or long-term progress in Scotland.”

Scottish Labour’s poor performance in the Aberdeen South and Arbroath and Broughty Ferry by-elections shows the need to “change Labour and change the country,” says Labour MP Melanie Ward.

Melanie Ward and The Times and Sunday Times columnist Alex Massie were speaking to Ayesha Hazarika on Times Radio. Listen live every Friday to Sunday, from 2-4pm.
