No room for Labour in Scotland, says Farron

Reduced to only eight MPs at the general election, the Liberal Democrats need to rebuild themselves as a great campaigning movement, according to their new leader Tim Farron.

In an interview with the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ's Andrew Marr, he accused David Cameron of "pushing Scotland further and further from the union" and described the SNP as "centre-left and authoritarian... in other words, just like the Labour Party."

"There's no room for the Labour party in Scotland," he said, "but bags of room for a liberal party and I hope we're going to fill that place."
