Sir Keir Starmer said the path to a Labour victory"must run through Scotland" as he once again ruled out a deal with the SNP to win a majority at the next general election.
Delivering a keynote speech at the Scottish Labour conference in Edinburgh, the Opposition leader said his party"must accept that for many Scots they look at Tory Britain and conclude the way out is the way forward". However, Sir Keir claimed the SNP"are not truly invested in Scotland's success" as he urged those who support it to put their faith in Labour instead.
"Anything Scotland achieves within the UK is met with gritted teeth, seen as a roadblock to the one true goal," he said. Addressing those who"have given up on Labour", he acknowledged that the case for the union"has always rested on the solidarity of working people pushing Britain forward" and said that case"is becoming harder to make" because of issues like the cost of living crisis.
