  1. “A proposal for the world’s largest data centre has been submitted at Chapelcross in Dumfries and Galloway. If approved, the data centre would have a capacity of 1GW - bigger than any other in the world - using 7 million MWh of energy per year, equivalent to over two million homes. If the proposal goes ahead, the data centre will put a massive strain on Dumfries and Galloway’s energy grid and destroy the local natural environment. We need your help to reject this proposal.”

  2. Is there someone from #ScottishGreens on here? If there is, just to say I am an expert in energy use and emissions of data centres.

    Update: thanks everyone, I have contact

  3. RE: mastodon.scot/@ScottishGreens/

    Somebody is taking a stand against Labour's cruelty.

    Remember how the Terfs who brought us this were crying over Rod Liddle on Monday, this was never about 'safety' but always about Bigotry.

  5. Real life #Fedimeet! I encountered @maggiechapman running along the Don a fortnight or so ago - she was running, I was ambling with the dogs.

    It was a beautiful day and we agreed to not talk politics.

    I forgot to note it here then but the wild raspberries have come out in that spot now, and the cygnets that hatched close by are swimming in the Don.

  6. CW: ukpol, generative ai, call to action

    https://greens.scot/datacentres

    The #ScottishGreens are doing a campaign to prevent the buildout of new hyperscaler #DataCentres in #Scotland. There are 24 new sites proposed in Scotland, potentially adding up to 6000MW of power.

    For comparison: This level of power, if run continuously for a year, would result in 52.6TWh of energy consumption, which rival Google's consumption in 2025 (https://ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/googles-exponential-path-to-climate-wrecking-digital-bloat/)

    I highly recommend supporting the campaign, you can do so at https://greens.scot/datacentres

  8. A candidate claims she was forced to quit because of her student visa. This is different from another MSP who kept their seat while on the same visa type.

  12. JK Rowling spent years and millions trying to erase trans people from civic life. Champagne, cigar, yacht when the Supreme Court ruled against us. Now Dr. Q Manivannan — a trans woman — is the MSP representing her constituency. You cannot dictate what civic life does next.

  13. the scottish greens have called for the resignation of electoral commission chief over spoiler party, independent green voice (which was founded by ex-UKIP holocaust denier & manky jaiket wearer, alistair mcconnachie), being allowed on the ballot. it's thought that confusion was the main reason that the IGV gained ~20,000 votes.

  14. "Bloody immigrants, coming over here and contributing to Democracy and paying taxes...."

    Getting a real eye view of what Brits actually want from Immigrants, and that's to work hard, shut up and do what we tell you. If we didn't want Commonwealth Citizens coming over here and engaging in our Society then perhaps we should have gone over to there's and fucked them over for 200 years.

  16. Pro-Independence Majority Bolsters Call for Referendum

    Pro-independence parties in Scotland won more seats in the recent election. This gives them more power to ask for a new vote on independence.

    Proud of my fellow Scots that we prevented Reform winning a single constituency in our Parliament. Shame they managed to get regional list MSPs

  19. This is a rare time when you actually have connection to the news. @q was one of my students in India. Besides being one of the most brilliant people I have ever met, Q is also one of the kindest and most joyful. A rare combination in this day and age. Scotland and @ScottishGreens are very lucky to have them as a new Member of the Scottish Parliament. Congrats, Q!

  20. @theferret just pulling out this paragraph for people who might not read the entire article:
    'the scottish greens received just £139,000 – a mere two per cent of the total reported by scotland’s parties. apart from £7,850 given to the party by its Highlands and Islands co-convenor, all recordable donations came from its MSPs’ own pockets, demonstrating a dearth of backing from larger donors.'
    sounds like massive plus in the #scottishgreens column. :)
