itemprop=description content=KEIR Starmer and Anas Sarwar have both hailed the Labour win in Rutherglen and Hamilton West as a “seismic” victory.
The UK Labour leader said the win showed his party’s message of change was cutting through, while the Scottish Labour chief said he believed it had “flipped Scottish politics on its head”.Speaking after the results were announced, Starmer said: “This is a seismic result. People in Rutherglen and Hamilton West have sent a clear message - it is time for change.“I have always said that winning back the trust of people in Scotland is essential.
The results mean there was a 20.4% swing from SNP to Labour, however, turnout was low, with only 37.19% of the 82,104 voters in the constituency turning out to cast their ballot.“This is a historic night in Scottish politics, it is a seismic result,” he said. Asked what he believes the win means for next year’s General Election, Sarwar said: “I think this demonstrates that Labour is winning in every single part of the country.
