Labour will help pick economy back up with election win, says Reeves

Ms Reeves is to campaign with Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar on Tuesday during a visit to Edinburgh, where she will pledge to “unleash Scotland’s economic firepower”.

“That is why I was proud to launch our review of financial services in Edinburgh last year and why I can announce that we will deliver on it. “I will unleash Scotland’s economic firepower to deliver jobs and growth because when Scotland succeeds, we all succeed. Mr Sarwar said: “Scotland is brimming with talent but 14 years of Tory chaos has hollowed out our economy and left us all poorer.

“At this election, we can call time on Tory economic turmoil and decline by electing a Labour government relentlessly focused on delivering growth, jobs and prosperity.” SNP economy spokesman and candidate for Inverness, Skye and West Ross-shire Drew Hendry said the “empty words” of the shadow chancellor would “ring hollow in the ears of Scotland’s financial services”.
