The Scottish Labour Party's changing.

0:00:020:00:03

We're going to come back stronger. We're going to come back better.

0:00:030:00:05

We're going to come back even more proud of Scotland and her people.

0:00:050:00:08

Well, after the election result we had in May,

0:00:200:00:23

it was obvious we had to change.

0:00:230:00:25

So we've been speaking to Party members and supporters across the whole of Scotland.

0:00:250:00:28

We must use this review to strengthen the Labour Party,

0:00:280:00:32

to pull us all together and make sure we campaign for everybody in Scotland.

0:00:320:00:36

There's a huge worry about unemployment, either by people who are unemployed at the moment

0:00:420:00:46

or people who are worried about losing their jobs.

0:00:460:00:48

And there's a massive crisis in relation to youth unemployment.

0:00:480:00:51

Kids are leaving school without any future - without getting

0:00:510:00:54

into further or higher education and without getting a training apprenticeship.

0:00:540:00:58

We haven't had this much youth unemployment in Scotland

0:00:580:01:00

since the days of the Tories, so we need action from the Scottish government and we need it now.

0:01:000:01:04

We've got to give them hope and opportunity.

0:01:040:01:08

There's a worry about the recession.

0:01:120:01:14

There's a worry about, is our country heading in the right direction,

0:01:140:01:17

with the government that we have in Edinburgh,

0:01:170:01:18

or the government that we have in London?

0:01:180:01:20

And they want a strong Labour Party.

0:01:200:01:23

It's our responsibility to make sure we have the ideas, the people,

0:01:230:01:25

the vision, the passion and the patriotism and a sense that

0:01:250:01:29

the next generation has the opportunity to do better than this generation.

0:01:290:01:33

My message is pretty clear. The Scottish Labour Party is changing,

0:01:330:01:37

changing again for the better, so it's again Scotland's Labour Party.

0:01:370:01:41

We're proud to be Scottish,

0:01:430:01:45

we're proud to have a Scottish Parliament

0:01:450:01:47

and we're proud to have a Scottish Labour Party.

0:01:470:01:50

Our challenge for the future is to make sure we set out a vision for Scotland,

0:01:500:01:54

to make Scotland the best it can be -

0:01:540:01:56

creating jobs, making the most of our industries

0:01:560:01:58

and, crucially, making the most of our people

0:01:580:02:00

cos that's what Scotland has in abundance - fantastic people

0:02:000:02:04

and the Labour Party needs to be on their side.

0:02:040:02:07

It's about saying that if a family works hard,

0:02:070:02:08

abides by the rules, that we're on their side

0:02:080:02:11

and if someone breaks the rules, we'll be on their back

0:02:110:02:14

because Scottish Labour stands up for the people who do the right thing in our country,

0:02:140:02:18

who want to make our country stronger,

0:02:180:02:20

who care for their family and look after their neighbours

0:02:200:02:23

and believe there is such a thing as a Scottish society.
