Far too many fans are being priced out of football. That’s why the @scottishgreens.org want to work with Scottish Premier League clubs to introduce a price cap of £25 for away fans. I’m calling on MSPs from every party to back a price cap and work with clubs to make football more affordable.
Scotland has spoken, returning clear pro-independence majority to Holyrood, and unionist parties must respect that!
Children shouldn't have their nursery funding decided on council boundaries. That’s not fair! We will work with parents to make sure they have the funding that they need based on their circumstances, not a postcode lottery.
There is no climate justice without social justice! 💚🌍 You can catch my full chat with Grado here: youtu.be/hdHMCZvcoRo?...
Football is meant to be for everybody but all over the country working-class fans are being priced out. What I’d like to see from colleagues across Parliament is a commitment to see the best in football supporters, to value their contribution, and support them to grow our game.
In September the Scottish Parliament passed a @scottishgreens.org motion calling for a boycott of Israel. But this week it was revealed that no briefing notes were prepared for ministers following the vote. Today I asked the First Minister when we will see action.
This is the story of how Scotland passed Safe Access Zones, and why they matter. They’re not designed to attack anyone’s right to protest, but instead aim to protect vulnerable patients. Healthcare should come without harassment. Scotland chose safety and dignity. And we’re not going back! 💚
As the only woman leader in the Scottish Parliament I can understand why women are reluctant to stand for office. I’d love to see more women in politics and all parties need to do more to make this possible!
A record result of Scottish Greens MSPs 💚 Only possible thanks to the thousands of dedicated activists who delivered our message of hope on the doorsteps. Now it’s time to deliver!
There is power in a union! ✊🏼 This week the @scottishgreens.org and @scottishtuc.bsky.social hosted a roundtable with trade unions from across Scotland. Workers rights must be at the core of everything we do.

Anthropic refused to let the Pentagon use its AI for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons. Trump Admin retaliated by designating them a supply chain risk. But consumers rewarded their resistance. They're now #1. Other companies should take note: Decency is good business.
One thing is for sure: The Trump administration doesn’t want you to know what they’re doing. Watch the full episode of Power Lines: youtu.be/mrRtiORjFHI?... Or listen via a podcast app: link.chtbl.com/PowerLines_S...
AI?? We already have a problem with the government invading our privacy with unauthorized mass surveillance. Imagine the privacy laws Trump breaks daily?

"I can say that the administration is still trying to limit the objectives and not make this look like an endless war, but it's been a mess in terms of the messaging of what this actually looks like, what an endgame actually looks like," said @markmazzetti.bsky.social.

We’ll see if Israel truly owns Trump. Itamar Ben-Gvir just openly bragged that Israel won’t let Trump sign a 'bad deal' with Iran—effectively admitting they pull the strings. Meanwhile—Israel is massacring civilians in Lebanon to sabotage U.S. negotiations. Let's see if Trump bends the knee—AGAIN!🤦🏿♂️
