Former Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont has said there can be "no quick fix" and her party must analyse its election mauling if it is to survive.

Lamont, who led Scottish Labour from 2011 to 2014, told Today: "Even those of us who were preparing for the worst possible defeat couldn't possibly have imagined what happened.

"We couldn't have predicted it, but we need to analyse it if we're going to survive.

"The instinct of the Labour Party is if there's a problem, change the leader, then sit back, fold your arms and wait to be disappointed because they're sure it's not going to deliver.

"We can't do that this time. We need to elect a leader not on a short term contract, but a long term appointment for the long haul. There is no quick fix to this, there are not any ploys, not any gimmicks, that will get us through the next period.
