Sneering traitors : MSPs on Richard Leonard s resignation

Updated: 14/01/2021, 6:24 pm © PA Splits are already emerging following the resignation of Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard. The Central Scotland MSP has held the post for three years but has decided to step down with immediate effect, having considered his future over the festive period. Amid grim polling projections ahead of the May election, Mr Leonard had been under pressure to resign from senior figures in the party. Mr Leonard says he had considered what the “speculation” about his leadership does to the party’s ability to get its message across, describing it as a “distraction”. The party’s Procedures Committee has formed to oversee the election of a new leader and will hold its first meeting on Friday.
