![]() | 'If the rate of growth in Scotland had been the same as the UK as a whole, public spending would be around £1bn higher in 2003-2004 than current plans' Professor David Bell of Stirling University, 6 th December 2000. | ![]() |
Craig Stevenson, a lecturer in plumbing services at Cardonald College in Glasgow, will fight the seat vacated by Dennis Canavan.
The 37-year-old who is married with two children, stood for the East Kilbride seat in last year's Scottish Parliament election without success.
The by-election has been caused by Mr Canavan's decision to withdraw his application to rejoin the Labour Party.
Labour, the Liberal Democrats, the Scottish National Party and the Scottish Socialist Party have all previously announced their candidates.
