Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has pledged to put Scottish innovation at the “heart” of plans to boost the economy.
While he said Scotland “has always punched above its weight in terms of innovation and creativity”, he added that the country has been “hamstrung” by governments at both Holyrood and Westminster which have “failed to deliver economic prosperity”.
Speaking ahead of a visit to Glasgow on Friday, Starmer vowed that Labour would “put Scotland’s innovation at the heart of an economy that is the fastest growing in the G7”.
