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 Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú'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."
