"The timetable for the contest will be announced at Labour's Scottish conference next month and a new leader is expected to be in place by the end of the year. "There are three not very well-known candidates," said the BBC interviewer. "What do you know about them and can you name them?" Mr Miliband replied: "I think we have got three great hitters. I think we have got three people who are determined to show that they can make a difference, that they can make a difference to the people of Scotland." Interviewer: "Can you name the three of them?" Mr Miliband: "Look, what I say is, there is Tom Harris, there is Johann Lamont and a third candidate who is also putting himself forward." Interviewer: "He is the front-runner, Ken Macintosh." Mr Miliband: "Ken Macintosh, yes." Interviewer: "He is the front-runner but you can't name him." Mr Miliband: "No, look, Ken Macintosh is going to be an excellent candidate.""

"Ian Davidson, MP for Glasgow South West, told The Times that he is considering throwing his hat into the ring after becoming concerned about reports of a “political fix” to ensure that Anas Sarwar, the Glasgow Central MP, is appointed to the position. Mr Davidson said: “I am unhappy about claims that the deputy leadership has been all carved up. That to me is what is wrong with the Labour Party, we should not be taking the electorate for granted.” Mr Sarwar’s campaign for the deputy leadership is well established and he has the support of a significant number of MPs. However, some on the left of the party believe that Jim Murphy, the Shadow Defence Secretary, is trying to control the Scottish party by ensuring that his allies — Ken Macintosh, who is running for the leadership, and Mr Sarwar — land the key roles."
