Anas Sarwar is so independent he CHOSE to deliver a conference speech following Starmer on nuclear energy, regional mayors, more private sector in NHS Scotland & cutting bueaucracy. He ignored Grangemouth, Waspi women & trades unions but mentioned business 14 times. He can keep his "new direction."
