Scottish Greens launch campaign for free public transport to Hampden with ticket The Scottish Greens have cited the benefits that would arise from the provision of free public transport to Hampden, and have written to the SFA to…

Great work @patrickharvie.bsky.social and @hollybruce.bsky.social

Greens are calling for free bus travel to and from Hampden for anyone who has a ticket for a match or event at the stadium.

This would lower costs for fans while relieving road congestion!

Greens condemn β€˜shameful’ SNP rollback on conversion practices and misogyny bill Greens condemn β€˜shameful’ SNP rollback on conversion practices and misogyny bill -

In what is almost a weekly event now, even more progressive legislation has been ditched by the Scottish Government.

They really do seem determined to prove just how timid they can be.

So, to those who celebrated the ruling last week and see this crucial piece of legislation dropped today, I say, wake up, this now impacts you too.

This vicious attack on trans women is slowing down feminist progress and costing lives. Dividing the feminist movement serves no one. Can’t you see that the problem isn’t trans women? It’s men’s violence against women and the patriarchy. All women have felt that violence throughout their lives.

02.05.2025 09:48 β€” πŸ‘ 52    πŸ” 11    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 1

Never have I seen evidence that shows that trans women are a threat to any one. Yet we see increased reports of rapes, assaults and the murder of women.

Over the last 3 years I’ve chaired the Violence Against Women & Girls partnership, sat on Safe Partnership and the Wellbeing and Equality committee, and had good relations with community policing.

And crucially, it would begin a culture shift, and give women the confidence to be mobile, have independence and feel empowered in their every day lives.

This bill would have criminalised catcalling and street harassment. Would have ensured women and non-binary folk felt safer on public transport. It would criminalise behaviour that causes fear, alarm and degradation.

SFA bans trans women competing in women's football in Scotland From next season, only those born biologically female will be allowed to take part in competitive matches in Scotland.

I’m appalled by this decision. I will be writing to the @scottishfa.bsky.social to understand why and who made this decision, whether trans athletes were consulted and if clubs were part of the decision making process.

We'd urge people not to panic - there will be lots of commentary coming out quickly that is likely to deliberately overstate the impact that this decision is going to have on all trans people's lives. We'll say more as soon as we're able to. Please look out for yourselves and each other today πŸ’—πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ

@scottishtrans.bsky.social have called for the community not to panic & to try and seek solace and support.

Sending love to the trans community today, and always.
