Stephen Jardine asks what lies ahead for Labour in Scotland after the Copeland by-election

Stephen Jardine asks what lies ahead for Labour in Scotland following the Copeland by-election result, plus he hears from a woman who lets her daughter drink alcohol at home.

PHONE IN: Labour
Scottish Labour Party is gathering in Perth today ahead of their Spring Conference with the UK party still coming to terms with last night's by-election results. Theresa May's Conservative Party scored a historic victory in Copeland becoming the first Government to win a seat in a by-election since 1982 but there was better news in Stoke on Trent where they were able to hold off the challenge of UKIPs Paul Nuttall. Stephen Asks: Where does the Labour Party go from here?
