You're at news today, powered by AI bringing you what matters across Europe. I'm Corey with the story. Ross Feuer, head of the Scottish Trays Union Congress, fired shots at Reform UK during their annual conference in Dundee. She labeled them as, washed up conservatives, peddling empty promises built on shaky economics, aimed straight at frustrated working class voters. This ramps up the bad blood between Reform and Scottish Labour leader Anna Sarwar. Some claim Sarwar pitched secret partnerships at Holyrood to oust the SINP, while Sarwar fires Beck that a top reform figure trashed their own. Leader as terrible and useless. Both sides deny it all. Feuer shrugged off the whole clashes pointless drama, urging folks to dig into actual party policies and whether the numbers add up. She stressed that mainstream politicians need to deliver more for everyday workers feeling left behind. Those lone lawmaker at Holyrood hit back, calling Sarwar stories, made up nonsense.

Meanwhile, Feuer doused reform can fix Scotland's worker woes and warns they gut public services and job protections if they gain ground. With reform nipping at Labour's heels for second and polls before the May 7th vote, Feuer bets Scots stay sharp and prioritise real gains for. Working people in the next parliament.
