Today is International Women’s Day.

We need more women in politics but it’s not always easy and we need to do more!

Evict Trump's troops from Scotland Evict Trump's troops from Scotland -

Join the calls for the Scottish Government to evict US troops from publicly-owned Prestwick Airport
👇✍️

greens.scot/TrumpsTroops...

A distinction without a difference. Prestwick is being used as part of this illegal war, as the spike in US military aircraft use shows.

Will the Scottish Government be fobbed off by this smoke & mirrors, or will they do the right thing and ban Trump's troops from their airport?

Join the campaign to evict Trump's military from airports owned by the Scottish Government: greens.scot/TrumpsTroops...

Our pressure is working! The First Minister confirmed today that he is actively considering this proposal.

What goes on in UK airspace is for Westminster.

Who gets to land at Prestwick is ultimately up to its owner, the Scottish Government. As shown previously by the ban on the Israeli military.

So why were 100s of US military aircraft allowed to use the airport in the last year?

Daily Mail column with my photo and headline: Mad Mullah of Milngavie urged Swinney to kick out Trump's troops

The Daily Mail's chief propagandist takes a brief pause from cheerleading Israel's genocide of Palestinians to get giddy about bombs dropping on some other innocent people.

That photo is a brutal reminder that I really need a good night's sleep though...

Reid said she had taken the decision to temporarily stand down to avoid becoming a "distraction" for the government. She also said it was to protect her children from "intrusion". "This week has been the worst of my life. The shock of recent days has been difficult for me and my family," Reid said in a statement. "I am not under investigation by the police and no accusations have been against me. I have done nothing wrong. "I am voluntarily suspending myself from the whip and will not sit as a Labour MP until internal investigations are concluded. I will welcome and co-operate with any questions and worries the party may have."

I do genuinely wonder if Joani Reid might now have a scintilla, a shred, just the teensiest spark of sympathy for what Dr Beth Upton was put through, a monstering in the media so brutal she quit the NHS, as part of a campaign against trans people that Reid wholeheartedly supports.

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.

I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.

Sahar Delijani said it best:

Door knocking in East Kilbride yesterday @southlangreens.bsky.social, we are meeting more and more people planning to vote Green for the first time!

We’ve also seen a huge surge in followers since our big by-election win in Manchester 💚

This isn't an attempt to free the Iranian people. Just like it wasn't an attempt to free Venezuelans last month or Iraqis in 2003.

The American empire takes what it wants and murders who it wants, aided by supine sidekicks like the UK.

The SNP & Labour are happy blaming each other for the lack of consensus on replacing the utterly broken Council Tax.

The only way to fix it will upset some very, very wealthy people. Both of their parties are quite happy with the poorest paying the price of keeping it in place.

Men with an axe and other weapons entered Manchester Central Mosque last night before members of the congregation were able to separate them and disarm them.

I'm sure the news will be reporting on this...anytime now, Soon....ish.... Maybe... Maybe not... 🙄

#Islamaphobia

the Scottish Ministers consider that the material considerations do not outweigh the identified policy conflicts with the development plan in this instance. Formal Decision 46. Accordingly, for the reasons given above, the Scottish Ministers hereby dismiss the appeal and refuse planning permission in principle for the proposed development.

🚨 WE WON - Flamingo Land has finally been rejected!

For the last decade we have fought to save Loch Lomond from this destructive mega-resort plan.

Thank you to the 155,000 people who joined our movement. This is your victory 💚

Greens pledge to expand childcare hours and free bus travel The Scottish Greens have promised the

Vote @scottishgreens.org in May to expand childcare hours for 6mo-2yr olds and provide free bus travel for everyone.

We've already delivered free bus travel for young people, a huge expansion of free school meals and the end of peak rail fares. That's the power of voting Scottish Greens.

There's nothing Christian about Reform's nonsense heritage proposals.

Jesus preached that hoarding wealth is sinful. He stated that we must welcome the stranger and love our neighbour, no matter where they come from.

Reform loathe these real Christian values.

🚫 Trump’s military out of Scotland!

Last week @scottishgreens.org led a debate to evict Trump’s troops from Scottish Government airports, including Prestwick, which has been used as a de facto US military base for years.

Every other party voted to keep them. Greens voted to give them the boot!
