  1. RE: mastodon.scot/@LaChasseuse/115

    #greenparty #green this is the sort of thing I want to see from our politicians in the UK. More of this please. More focus on fixing our broken systems. More focus on returning value to our local economies. More focus on living well. #scottishgreenparty are you ready? #scotland #scottishindependence

  2. I am not sure how many people this is relevant for, but I am standing for selection as a Scottish Green Party candidate for the Glasgow list. There is a link to my candidate statement below, and I am happy to answer questions here, via email, or on Signal.

  3. CW: Scottish politics, Section 35, trans rights 🏳️‍⚧️

    I am generally out of touch with news – I’ve basically stopped looking for the sake of my mental health

    So I got a nasty double shock when I received an email today from the Scottish Green Party’s Maggie Chapman (Equalities spokesperson) and Jen Bell (Co-convenor of the Rainbow Greens, the party’s LGBTQIA+ group):

    1. Apparently, 12 days ago a Court of Session judge ruled that the UK government were entitled to use section 35 of the Scotland Act 1998 to overrule the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill on 17 January 😳

    (The GRR had been on the verge of becoming law, after the Scottish Parliament voted 88–39 in favour of the Bill on 22 December last year)

    2. The Scottish Government, who brought the Court of Session case against the UK government, have revealed today that they will not appeal the judge’s decision 😞

    Instead they propose to keep the Bill in cryogenic stasis until such time as a trans-friendly UK government agrees to respect the Scottish Parliament’s democratic process

  4. CW: Scottish politics, SGP, second houses

    Very pleased to see the Scottish Green Party continuing to stand up for tenants’ rights and against the scourge of landlordism

    Later in this parliamentary term, they will introduce a Housing Bill providing tenants with permanent protection from eviction and rent controls

    And the Scottish Government have just published plans to double council tax on second homes

  9. #Green #minister, Slater urged to block three new waste incinerators.

    The #greens #ScottishGreenParty have always been strongly opposed to incineration. I hope they don’t U-turn now that they are in government.

  10. Robin Harper, respected former Scottish Green leader has quit the party after thirty years of membership and says he will vote Labour at the next general election.

    Also says that the Scottish Green Party has "lost the plot".

    TBH I'm surprised this hasn't happened earlier. The Scottish Greens ceased being a real Green Party in favour of Nationalist Populism a long time ago.

  11. Great quote from Lorna Slater, "To incentivise the rich you have to give them money; to incentivise the poor you have to take their money away." youtu.be/reoCO4guC70

  12. #SNP deputy leader Keith Brown says SNP most #transparent party in #Scotland. Speaking as someone who has long voted for the SNP this is a boggling interpretation and assessment from the deputy leader. If they want to win round people like me who are wavering, including many potentially going to the Green Party, assertions like this do not help. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-sco #ScottishPolitics #ScottishGreens #GreenParty #transparency #politics #ScottishGreenParty

  13. #introduction time: i’m Rich (he/him) been lurking here since the first rumours of trouble on the bird site, but aiming to embrace Mastodon now.

    I live in Dennistoun in the east end of Glasgow: civil engineer by day, solo #gamedev by night, into all things techy, nerdy or involving many sided dice (#dnd / #ttrpg folks, hi!)

    I’m #vegan, about as left wing as you can be and involved in campaigning with #scottishgreenparty.

    I’m hoping to make some new friends here - you all seem lovely so far!
