I am really proud to be the Co-leader of a party that is growing in the polls and seeing membership surges all across the country. πŸ“ˆ

This is just the beginning.

Our activists are the bedrock of our movement.

Together we will take on those who are rigging the system! πŸ’š

Well done to Cllr Tollemache in helping oust the Tory/Lab Council, & instead offer a progressive alternative πŸ’š

Looking forward to his work as Transport & Net Zero Convenor in fighting for public ownership of buses, & community-owned renewables ✊️

Stirling Council expected to back Scottish Green as party's first Lord Provost Alasdair Tollemache would take up the ceremonial role in a bid to unseat the ruling Labour-Conservative coalition.

Delighted my friend Cllr Alasdair Tollemache has been nominated as Stirling Council’s first Green Provost! πŸ˜€

He’s made a huge contribution to the Stirling area for years, he’ll work hard to unify our communities and champion the vulnerableπŸ’š

They may dispute the specific number. But with 4000 people on the waiting list and fewer than 50 first appointments a year, it hardly matters if we project 80 years, 224, or anything in between.

Unless there is dramatic change, people are just not getting the service they need. It's unacceptable.

Come join the Scottish Greens. We're the biggest eco-socialist party in Scotland. We're tackling the climate crisis and taking on the super rich, and polls show we could double our seats next May. But we do need you. greens.scot/join @scottishgreens

Outstanding work from Comrade McKenna, basically acknowledging that the @scottishgreens.org would make society so much better, but he's not voting for us because we also think war criminals should face consequences.

So many people across the country are struggling.

And they're rightly angry at a political system which has failed them.

With a new generation of leadership across the UK only Greens will deliver the transformation that our country desperately needs. πŸ’š
