SCOTTISH Labour meets in Aviemore today for its annual conference. The broad message will be that the party is still in business and ready to go back on the offensive against the SNP.

Ms Alexander said she was not a Gordon Brown puppet

During the web chat, driven by questions from BBC viewers, listeners and online users, she was asked to score herself out of 10 for her performance since being elected leader unopposed in September last year.

"Rising all the time, I think is the answer," said Ms Alexander, adding: "Ten out of 10, 10 out of 10."

And Ms Alexander also dismissed claims of arrogance against Labour politicians and said her party's fight back was under way.

She added: "Frankly, as I look across the other benches in the parliament, I don't think the arrogance is on our side.

"I think that what people are looking for are politicians who are willing to listen, I think you will see this week that conference is listening and learning."

Aye right! It's obvious that Labour no longer believe in the claim of right and don't want Scots to decide their own future.

Game set and match to SNP.
