No-one was hurt. Shona MacDonald reports

This morning at 11:05am as the MV Hebrides, which had left Tarbet, was

approaching the pier at Lochmaddy, suffered what CalMac said was a

technical failure. This led to it being unable to reduce speed as it

tried to reverse. It went on to strike the pontoons next to the pier

and the sea bed. There were 76 passengers on crew on board when it

arrived here this morning and no one was injured. We weren't going any

speed a tall, although it was too fast coming in, by the time with --

by that time we were on the rocks at slow speed. It slammed against a

jetty quite hard and damaged the jetty as well. There was no fear, I

didn't see anybody having fear or panic or anything like that. White

A plan to give the Scottish Labour leader a greater say in shaping UK

party policy is under threat tonight after the boss of Britian's

biggest union, Unite, indicated he may try to veto it.

The development comes as Kezia Dugdale has been repeatedly

questioned over whether she can work with Jeremy Corbyn.

From the Labour Party conference in Liverpool,

here's our political correspondent, David Porter.

A day on from Jeremy Corbyn's re-election as Labour leader, the

question on most people's lips in Liverpool is simple, what happens

next? Mr Corbyn was returned with a bigger mandate than last year but as

far as many of his MPs are concerned, he is still the wrong man

for the job. The party leader in Scotland has frequently criticised

Jeremy Corbyn, but since his three election, Kezia Dugdale has been

accused of making contradictory comments. In which logical universe

is saying that Jeremy Corbyn's chances of winning a general

election are slim to nonexistent and I stick by that comment, then saying

Jeremy Corbyn can win an general election, in which universe are

those statements consistent? The only way the Labour leader can lead

us to six -- a successful general election is with United party which

is why that must be the focus of everybody at this conference, from

Corbyn to Labour MPs, the duties on myself as well and I'm committed to

that. I want to work with Jeremy Corbyn to make that work. Away from

the question there are plans to give the Scottish party more say over its

own affairs, but today signs of trouble on score with the leader of

Britain's's biggest union coming out against aspects of the proposals. In

terms of the Scottish and Labour seats on the NEC, we would prefer

that to be elected as opposed to appointed. Our delegation will

discuss that tomorrow. Indeed, all trade unions, when they made the

submission sought additional seats for Scotland and Wales, but on the

basis that it would be elected. That could make its tight when the issue

is voted on this week. This could be anything but plain sailing.
