George Street, Aberdeen in 1959.

Solidarity is where it’s at. ✊🏽🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

There are powerful, well-connected, well-funded people in this country, today, who are deliberately, strategically, using the idea of a woman being made "uncomfortable" by the presence of a trans person to plot the removal of that woman's right to abortion, contraception, and divorce.

To this I would add: the UK is so completely parochial, with only awareness of the similarly atrocious US, that so many people are just completely unaware of how uniquely bizarre the UK Labour party is in pursuing and presiding over such extreme transphobic policies as bathroom bans.

Just in case I'm not loud enough-fuck this shit, fuck the people doing this shit and double fuck the people who claim to be for equality and don't stop this shit. I prefer to let trans people lead the convo on transphobia, but my hairy cis ass is about to go full metal feminist on this shit.

It’s time for the people who haven’t said much about trans rights because it’s a bit inconvenient and might cause tension with gender critical colleagues to actually say something btw

When you add in Scottish papers, and the UK newspapers Amnesty didn't monitor, it's almost certainly the case that in Scotland there have been more articles about trans people than there are trans people

We're extremely proud to announce our candidate for the George Street and Harbour by-election will be Charlotte Horne. We'll let her introduce herself here.

I am proud to announce that I have been selected as the Scottish Green candidate for the upcoming George Street and Harbour By-Election. I have lived in Aberdeen for the past 5 years and am a graduate of Aberdeen University. Aberdeen is my home and a beautiful city but it can be so much better.

I am once again asking why in this country we treat election results like a great state secret where anything beyond the headline figures is on a ‘need to know’ basis only

Incredibly frustrating that Maggie and the Dundee & Angus Greens blocked my branch from standing here. We had a great candidate in William and would have easily won back our deposit. Similar story across the North East.

🟢 @irisduane.bsky.social elected to represent Glasgow region! Iris is one of three Scottish Green MSPs elected in Glasgow today, taking our total across Scotland so far to 10!

Congratulations @irisduane.bsky.social!!

Great to see @irisduane.bsky.social elected! History has been made today. Congratulations 🙌

Huge, HUGE congrats to our first two trans MSPs! Doing the community proud!!! 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

For those who dont know up here in deepest darkest Aberdeenshire, this is important Iris is one of the few city-based politicians who really sees rural people as people. Been impressed with her community-based approach to leadership for a long time and now Im crying again @irisduane.bsky.social

@lornaslater.bsky.social Congratulations!

A very Scottish take on the ol' Democracy Sausage 😎

Voted.

Go vote.

All politics are local politics example 3000...

Trans people deserve better, we deserve life, we deserve safety, we deserve decency, we deserve identity. I am proud to be trans and I am proud to support trans rights. 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

A great turn out for the Aberdeen Unity March this morning. Community standing up for the city against hatred.

Happy to see several hundred Unity demonstrators (from a hugely diverse range of backgrounds) showing the 12 or so hate-filled fash that Aberdeen shows solidarity to all! Love trumps hate every time! ❤️👊🏽 #SayItLoudSayItClearRefugeesAreWelcomeHere

The Aberdeen Unity March is today! Head down with a friend. We’ll see you there ❤️

This Saturday, April 18th, we’ll be marching for a city that is united in our diversity. We’ll assemble on Rubislaw Terrace at 10:30am before marching down Union Street. Hope to see you there!

Just checked and this is real - Scottish Labour’s manifesto refers to trans people using slurs and commits to a policy of explicit segregation in public life

The entire party is complicit in this. Every """pro-trans""" Slab MSP has been cowardly and refused to speak out Don't vote for them tactically. Don't rank them on the list vote. The only way to get these parasites to listen is to shatter their egos at the ballot box

Birthday

The system isn't broken, it's rigged! Together, we can hold the powerful to account. That must start within our own ranks, so sign this petition to force an EGM and keep the Scottish Greens a party of Radical Democracy for the whole of Scotland! forms.gle/C8oeYE2r3Tec...

Fifty signatures already!! 🎶 Wooooah we're halfway there~~ 🎶

The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military. The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him. Words aren't enough - it's time for action.

Honestly, the great crisis of our society is the unwillingness of institutions to inflict consequences. Impeach the president, fire the sex pests, expel cheating students, excommunicate an unrepentant heretic, prosecute the war criminals. Believe in your institution enough to enforce its rules.

Scottish Green Party members from all over Scotland are calling for an EGM to address our concerns - primarily regarding the conduct of multiple central bodies (SOC, ECC, CCC, etc) over the past year. We're asking 'em to Sort it. Sound good? Join us in signing! forms.gle/C8oeYE2r3Tec...

i remember when the potential inaccuracy of wikipedia was a huge point of concern for academic use and we cautioned against it for years, the machine that cannot be prevented from lying is required to use though this reeks of schools being paid to make this happen by the companies selling this shit

The leader of the LGBT+ wing of the Scottish Greens has quit amid a row over the party’s candidates in the North East
