ON Friday, I was proud to meet with a group of remarkable women in a well-known pub in Cambuslang.

and the Scottish Feminist Network who were keen to question candidates – including myself – who are standing in the upcoming Rutherglen and Hamilton West by-election about their views on protecting single-sex spaces for women and girls and on women’s rights in general.

Who could forget Nicola Sturgeon’s infamous interview and First Minister’s Questions against Douglas Ross, where she couldn’t say if rapist Isla Bryson was a man or not. More and more often, we are seeing Scottish and UK Labour willing to U-turn on issues to try and make their lives easier. Yet now after women spoke up against him, Mr Sarwar has flip-flopped, saying he doesn’t back the bill and he wouldn’t have supported it.

Today’s Labour Party simply cannot be trusted to stand up for the real priorities facing people in Glasgow and across Scotland.
