Public transport should be for the people, not for profit.

If we unshackled the price of energy from the most expensive energy it could make a huge difference to energy bills, to the cost of living, and to our environment.

Love to Glasgow tonight ❀️ please dig out some decent ffp2 masks if you're going to be in the centre for the next week (if you're not already masking). That amount of smoke will be causing breathing problems in healthy people, as well as babies, older people and those with respiratory conditions.

Reform's leader drumming up hate against asylum seekers and refugees. His party are not the protectors of women and girls - they are the danger.

Men who shout at hotels are not protecting women Far-right groups protest about asylum accommodation in Aberdeen, claiming to be protecting women, but they regularly target women for abuse

Scotland must defend and protect refugees. They are not the problem in our society.

We must repudiate the far right in Scotland. They're the problem.

Calls for Stirling buses to be taken under public control as McGill's complaints 'spike' McGill's Midland Bluebird chiefs face a second public inquiry in five months.

Great progress in weeks since Scottish Greens Alasdair Tollemache took over leadership of transport at Stirling Council including piloting two new rural bus services (C61/62) and new Eastern Villages service planned πŸ’šπŸš

It’s time for McGills to go ❌

Graphic from Bradford District Green Party promoting Green Party membership growth.
At the top of the graphic are two people speaking and smiling during what appears to be a filmed interview or discussion. One is a blonde woman wearing a patterned white blouse with black spots and a green sleeveless layer, and the other is a man wearing a dark blazer and white shirt. The text above them reads: β€œBRADFORD DISTRICT GREEN PARTY”.
Overlaid in the centre is a screenshot styled like a newspaper article from The Guardian. The headline reads: β€œGreen party membership in UK passes 200,000 after byelection victory.”
Below the headline, the subheading reads: β€œParty leader Zack Polanski says surge in numbers β€˜proves that the future of progressive politics belongs to the Greens’.”
At the bottom of the graphic is a green banner with the text β€œjoin.greenparty.org.uk”. In the bottom-right corner is the Bradford District Green Party logo. Small promotional text along the bottom reads that the graphic is promoted by D Parkinson on behalf of Bradford District Green Party, with a Shipley address.

Why has the world's first hydrogen double-decker fleet failed? The multi-million pound project in Aberdeen was meant to be the future of clean public transportation.

Turns out that funnelling public funds into a PR whitewashing mission for big oil was a bad call, who knew?

Really concerned to hear the Defence Secretary refuse to rule out UK's involvement in future strikes on Iran.

Iraq lessons must be learned.
Further escalation in the Middle East makes us all less safe.

Starmer must rule out UK involvement immediately.
