Evict Trump's troops Evict Trump's troops - Greens to force vote on evicting Trump’s troops from Scotland

🍊❌Donald Trump is no friend of Scotland. He has shown total contempt for our courts and for human rights around the world. It’s time for the Scottish Parliament to stand up to him.

​ What are we allowed to say on Gaza now, Mr Starmer? – Lorna Slater Green councillors had brought a motion for debate showing solidarity with people undertaking hunger strikes while in prison for acting against the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Solidarity and peaceful protest should never be a crime and nor should defending the right of others to protest peacefully ✊

Saddled with a UK government that won’t listen or learn - Lorna Slater By the time you read this he may already be gone and it wouldn’t be before time. Keir Starmer’s premiership has become synonymous with inaction, poor judgement and broken promises.

Why choice and dignity matter as life nears its end - Lorna Slater As the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults Bill makes its way through the Scottish Parliament, we are being asked to confront one of the most profound and sensitive questions any society can face...

Even the most perfect care cannot eliminate all suffering and cannot remove the fear of loss of capacity. We must all have the right to choose 🫂

Greens prevented from discussing hunger striking Palestine protestors due to draconian proscription laws - Edinburgh Green Party If we needed any further proof that Labour’s obsession with cracking down on protest has gone too far, it is this - Cllr Claire Miller

Yesterday we were due to debate my motion about the hunger strikers at full council but were forced to withdraw because of UK government law

There are some big questions raised about democracy, freedom of speech and human rights

Huge thanks to everyone who has supported me during this process

Thank you all for getting out campaigning today! 💚💚💚

Angus, you know fine and well the constituency boundary was shifted southwards in a manner that incorporated large parts of Labour-held Edinburgh Southern, fundamentally changing the nature of the seat to a (near) marginal vs Labour. Behave! ballotbox.scot/sp26-edinbur...

Is it really just 2, Angus? 👀

"(With boundary changes) This has created hands-down the best constituency that has ever existed for the Scottish Greens, better even than the former Glasgow Kelvin."

🌳The Greens helped get this Bill into Parliament, now it’s time for action to restore nature for good

'My father's death was beautiful, that's how I would like to go' Former Scottish Greens co-leader Lorna Slater speaks exclusively to Scotland Tonight about her father's assisted death in Canada.

Last November my father took his last breath surrounded by family after suffering for a long time. The choice of medically assisted death allowed him to choose how he died.

Thank you to STV for allowing me to tell his story.
