When he lost to the Scottish National Party's Adam Ingram, it was the first time since the seat's creation in 1999 that Labour had failed to win the seat.[7] In the 2016 Scottish Parliament election he was elected as an additional member. Leonard supported Jeremy Corbyn in the 2016 UK Labour Party leadership election.[8] The 2017 Scottish Labour leadership election was triggered by the sudden resignation of Kezia Dugdale in August. During the campaign to decide her successor, the BBC News website described Leonard as the more "left-wing" of the two candidates; Anas Sarwar was his rival.[9] However, he distanced himself from Corbyn in an October 2017 interview with the New Statesman, saying "I'm too long in the tooth to be a Corbynista".[10] On 18 November 2017, it was announced that Leonard had been elected as Scottish Labour leader, receiving 56.7% of the vote on a 62.3% turnout.[11] Only a few hours after the leadership election result was announced, Leonard said he would discuss with Labour MSPs whether Kezia Dugdale would be suspended for failing to notify the party that she was set to join the reality TV gameshow in Australia I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! for several weeks while the Scottish Parliament was still in session.[12] References1. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/politics/scotland-regions/S17000009|title=Election 2016: Central Scotland.
