We need your support to run our best ever council campaign. That will also make it our most expensive yet, so we need your help to make it happen!

Green councillors have called for an urgent meeting of the Transport Committee to prevent these vital protections from being ripped out. I hope @stephenjenkinson.bsky.social agrees. app.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/story/854236...

Every Green MSP will be a voice for our planet, for equality and for a real alternative to a broken status quo! 💚

The fact this has been allowed to happen again and again undermines our democracy and the integrity of our election results. The Electoral Commission is there to ensure that people get the results they vote for, and they have failed to do so!

We have just had our best ever election result. Now we want to turn Edinburgh City Council Green next year, and we need your help! We need to raise money to run our best-ever city council election campaign. Please donate to our crowdfunder to make our campaign a success!

Pleased to see @scottishgreens.org making by far the best contribution to lessening the overrepresentation of men. Our shameful ratios in 2007 and the two subsequent elections really galvanised positive action, though transphobic obsessives have done their best to ruin that.

Thank you thank you thank you to everyone who has supported our campaign, voted green, and is pushing for hope, justice and peace around the world. Free Palestine 🇵🇸 💚 ✊️ @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

Scotland needs more powers to tackle the big issues. #bbcdn

#DogsAtPollingStations politely suggesting that everyone should #VoteScottishGreens today @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

Some lovely chats with folk at polling stations in Edinburgh North Eastern and Leith the morning - including running into Mairi from @lighthousebks.bsky.social 💚 Sylvie thinks everyone is at the polling stations to say hello to her 🥰 @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

Now is your chance. Polls show that your Green votes can stop Reform UK.

Today is the day to make your voice heard. Let's demand better.

It's between Greens and Labour in Edinburgh Central. Make it both votes Green to deliver MSPs who will demand better.

Vote for hope tomorrow, this Thursday the 7th of May, in Edinburgh, the Lothians, and all of Scotland!!! 🌸 @katenevens.bsky.social @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

My incredible fellow candidate @qmanivannan.bsky.social spoke so beautifully at this year's Trans Pride in Edinburgh. Parliament needs people like Q, and I am so excited to work with them if we are both elected! 💚 @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

Your fave duo of candidates visited Leith Depot last week to chat about preserving our local cultural spaces (and spotted about 20 Green posters on the way!). Tomorrow: vote Scottish Greens to secure MSPs who care about their communities! @qmanivannan.bsky.social @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

Tomorrow, let's demand better for Edinburgh. Every Green vote will lock out Reform, and build a strong alternative to Labour.

A final few pics from our doorknocking sessions in Edinburgh - thank you so so much to everyone who has come out and joined us, it's been an incredible campaign and we should all be super proud 💚 @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

🚨 NEW POLL! 👉 Vote Scottish Greens 🛑 Stop Reform 🟢 Build a fairer, greener, kinder Scotland Don't leave it to chance.

You can vote Green everywhere in Scotland - peach (regional) ballot, look for the Scottish Greens logo. #VoteGreen Sone lucky folk can vote Green on the purple ballot too 🙌 (You all know this, cos you are well-informed Bluesky type folk, but please spread the word!)

Election day tomorrow! Vote Scottish Green Party on the peach (regional list) ballot everywhere in Scotland 💚 And both votes green wherever you can, including in my constituency of Edinburgh North Eastern and Leith!

A lot has happened since 2014. If Scotland elects a pro-independence majority, that's a democratic mandate to pursue independence.

In two days, we can vote for hope ♥️

With just over a week to go our numbers are continuing to rise - - @ch1453.bsky.social - Ross Stalker - @mareetodd.bsky.social - @qmanivannan.bsky.social - @houstinium.bsky.social - William Linegar

Turning Leith Green at the polis box on Sunday! Thanks to everyone who stopped by, enjoyed some of our live music, picked up a poster 💚 Vote Scottish Greens on 7th May - and both votes Green wherever you can!! @edinburghgreens.bsky.social

Best part about seeing the #GreenWindaes around Edinburgh & Lothians East? The posters that locals have paired with them — for taxing the rich, solidarity with Palestine 🇵🇸 , with women’s autonomy over their bodies, trans solidarity 🏳️‍⚧️ On the 7th of May, we show up and fight back.

Getting the @scottishgreens.org message out for @lornaslater.bsky.social in Fountainbridge today. #VoteScottishGreens.

Amazing turnout for #BothVotesGreen door knocking in Bruntsfield yesterday. Real energy in the campaign and momentum to elect @lornaslater.bsky.social as the first @scottishgreens.org constituency MSP in Edinburgh Central. #ActiveGreens #VoteGreen

Getting the #bothvotesgreen message out around Tollcross this morning. #votegreen #activegreens #letsdemandbetter

They'll probably need them for the reunion tour.

By delivering free bus travel for young people, we have supported their independence and saved them money. We want to build on this scheme's success, and make bus travel free for all. Let's demand better. On May 7th, Vote @scottishgreens.org

Some really positive conversations on the doors round Gorgie today: 🙏the importance of welcoming & supporting immigrants; 💷 Investing in energy efficiency & renewables to bring fuel bills down & 🛑 lots of folk voting @scottishgreens.org to oppose Reform. #BothVotesGreen #ActiveGreens #VoteGreen

Great to be joined by @scottishgreens.org co-leader @gillianmackaygreen.bsky.social this morning, with other @edinburghgreens.bsky.social campaigners, door knocking in Gorgie. What a warm response we got! #VoteScottishGreens #VoteGreen.

Since we delivered free bus travel for under 22s, over 250 million free journeys have been taken. It's opened up access to education, work and social opportunities that might otherwise have been out of reach. Now it's time to deliver free bus travel and its benefits to everyone.

Just a reminder to take time and understand the workings of any polls you’re reading - would highly recommend following @ballotbox.scot to learn about it all and read their analysis of the figures when they come out

Someone asked me why less women put themselves forward in politics while I was getting my highlights done, so they got an essay 😂 but I’m thankful he asked, not sure a man has ever asked me that. Women generally don’t either they know why! That’s allyship lads!
