Sir Keir Starmer promises to work with Scottish Labour to tackle cost-of-living
He has been meeting potential voters on a trip to Scotland.
Sir Keir Starmer is promising to work with his colleagues at Scottish Labour if he gets into number 10 Downing Street next year in a general election.
The Labour leader claims he will help tackle the cost-of-living crisis by working to assess the fairness of policies like the two-child benefit limit amid a backlash over a failure to scrap the cap.
Earlier he visited Rutherglen with Anas Sarwar to talk about plans to win over support of people in the town ahead of a by-election in the autumn.
He said: "There's nothing to say an incoming Labour government can't make sure that the policies we've got can operate more fairly.
"I think you'd expect that from a Labour government and you'll get that from a Labour government.
Sir Keir added: "What you're not going to get is this false sense of division between Anas and me on this. You can see how united we are."
Mr Sarwar also said "really strong ongoing dialogue" was taking place between both sides of the party.
During the discussion with Labour party members on Tuesday, Sir Keir set his party's ambition to win over working class voters by "shattering the class ceiling".
"It is of course the first chance that Labour has had to show the progress that we have made over the last few years, and particularly under Anas' leadership," he said.
"When I think about where we where when Anas took over to now, it's like night and day.
"This is our chance to show that progress and expose the fact that the SNP have effectively run out of road. That's why they're getting personal."
