๐In Glasgow your Green candidates are @patrickharvie.bsky.social, @elliebgomersall.bsky.social, and @hollybruce.bsky.social!
โก๏ธAt last year's Westminster election, Greens saw record results in Glasgow, help us build on this success: members.greens.scot/donate/2026-...
New poll. Scottish Greens on course for record result. 2021: 8 MSPs. Latest poll: 16 MSPs.
๐จ A new poll shows the number of Scottish Green MSPs doubling at next year's Scottish Parliament election!
That would put us above both the Tories and the Lib Dems.
We're at a crossroads. Itโs more important now than ever to have a strong voice fighting for people and planet, not the super-rich.
100% this. How the interaction of the 2004 GRA and the 2010 Equality Act should work was completely clear and explicit in 2010. Not to say this is a straight-up lie driven by bigotry.

At last yearโs general election, young women were twice as likely to vote Green across the UK than young men were to vote for Reform. @elliebgomersall.bsky.social outlines why we must speak to them.

Over the last few days, we've been hearing from readers asking us to "stop giving Nigel Farage publicity" by covering news on his interventions in Hamilton, or reporting on Reform in general.
We won't be doing that. No-platforming Farage will only help Reform. Here's why ๐
I'd (of course) disagree that the SNP will be the left voice vs. Reform.
They've moved to the centre & aren't tackling crises that people desperately want sorted like housing, care, & public services.
Greens must shout from the rooftops about these & move to broaden the issues folk trust us for.
Green politics should be about materially opposing fascism, not just saying "I told you so" when Farage becomes PM. It's incumbent on Greens to take the fight directly to Reform - we know that it's both Green ideas and Green votes at the ballot box next year that can defeat the far-right.

When the Cass Review came out last year, the NYT rushed to cover it complete with post notifications. After reviews in Germany and Utah came out supporting gender affirming care for trans youth, dead silence. You can be just as biased in what you don't cover as what you do.

If only Anas Sarwar was a policy thief as well as a patter thief, then Labour would be in a better place.
If you want a radical alternative to Reform, it ain't Labour, it's Green - have a read of my piece a wee while back in Green Left Scotland ๐

As a wee guy from Springburn, it's great seeing @gillianmacmsp.bsky.social make the point that Greens have the ideas, but need to build trust & communication with folk being left behind, to help fight Reform & build better communities ๐

People Make Glasgow, & Ellie would make a fantastic MSP for our city and our communities, & a leading voice in the fight against Reform โ๏ธ
I've had the privilege of working closely with Ellie ever since I got active in politics.
She's the kind of person Glasgow & the Greens need as an MSP.
Tireless, compassionate, intelligent and deeply committed to the transformative socialist politics our parliament needs.
Excited to vote Ellie #1
Thanks so much Niall ๐๐
