Scottish Labour has blocked journalists from attending a lobbying event for business which is running alongside its party conference in Glasgow this week.
A number of frontbench figures will appear at the Scottish Labour Business Forum, which will “allow C-suite business leaders an opportunity for high level discussion with senior UK and Scottish Labour politicians”.
While Labour members, trade union delegates and the press will be milling around the main conference at the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) in Glasgow, business leaders will mix with senior politicians and party officials just around the corner at a sold-out private event in the Crowne Plaza hotel.
