Sarwar, a Glasgow member of the Scottish parliament , succeeds Richard Leonard who resigned in January. “I want to say directly to the people of Scotland - I know Labour has a lot of work to do to win back your trust because if we’re brutally honest you haven’t had the Scottish Labour party you deserve,” said Sarwar.
