Another day under a Labour government. Higher education must remain open to everyone, not just those who can afford it. Tuition fees saddle young people with decades of debt that many will never pay off. Scottish Greens will always oppose their introduction in Scotland.

Moscow is accused of running sabotage and espionage operations across Europe targeting nations supporting Ukraine.

Every day thousands of new members are joining the Green Party. And solidarity to our friends in @scottishgreens.org who are also rapidly growing as a party! Get involved: Greens.scot/join

Breastfeeding seems to cause specialised immune cells to flood into the breasts and stay there for years or even decades, reducing the risk of cancer

PM Mark Carney 🇨🇦 Canada’s new government just released the Housing Design Catalogue. It has 50 standardised housing designs that builders will use to streamline approvals, cut through red tape, and get millions more homes built, faster. #cdnpoli

Study after study shows that it's remarkably cheap and easy to solve the problems of homelessness and poverty with low-barrier supportive housing and universal basic income, but our own fear that someone, somewhere will get something they didn't "earn" keeps us looking for other (punitive) options.

Build. Affordable. Social. Housing.

Inside Scotland’s march against poverty Thousands of protesters from Scottish churches, charities and trade unions will take to the streets next week demanding a fair deal for the poor. It’s the first demo of its kind I talk to the man behind the rally in my @heraldscotland.bsky.social long read

CLIMATE campaigners have demanded the government “do the right thing” and block plans to exploit Britain’s largest untapped oil field at #Rosebank #ClimateCrisis morningstaronline.co.uk/article/gove...

Since we delivered free bus travel for those under the age of 22, over 250 million free journeys have been taken. That's congestion off ours streets, pollution out our air, and money back in people's pockets. That's a resounding success we can build on. 👉 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Asylum saves lives. No one should be sent back to a place where they are in danger. Those fleeing war and persecution deserve safety—and when safe options exist, traffickers lose power. #UNGA

In times of crisis, girls are often the first to be pulled out of school and the last to return. Every girl has the right to learn, no matter where she lives or what she's been through. Education must be part of every emergency response. #GirlGoals

🧵🚨 The UK’s independent scientific bodies are highly vulnerable to politicisation - over the past 5 months I've been working with @martinmckee.bsky.social to map out their vulnerabilities and it's not good news. Today our report is published! www.ucl.ac.uk/policy-lab/n... 1/11

Taliban authorities have imposed a total internet shutdown in Afghanistan to prevent "immoral acts." This is reckless & has far reaching consequences for delivery of aid, access to healthcare & girls education. Taliban must restore connectivity now. Read more:

TikTok is getting rid of the London staff who keep you safe from harmful, misleading and illegal content. When did they announce the job cuts? Eight days before those employees were due to vote on unionising. We’ve signed an open letter with @tuc.org.uk and @cwunews.bsky.social:

Learning to play an instrument has long been linked to improved reading skills among children, and we may finally understand why

Far too much of Scotland's land is hoarded by a small group of the extremely rich. But we can change that. Scottish Greens are working to strengthen the upcoming Land Reform Bill to boost community ownership and put Scotland’s land in Scotland’s hands.

Experts argue Israel's actions in Gaza amount to genocide, surpassing isolated violations of war laws.

✊Politicians must show that they're on the side of working people. 📻Listen to @rozfoyer.bsky.social with @alans-bauer.bsky.social calling on them to introduce a wealth tax that could lift 30,000 kids out of poverty.

Now the political panel is up with Andy Maciver, Mark Griffin, Ross Greer and Ivan McKee discussing Council Tax and the way forward (or not). #TaxJusticeScotland is clear - it's time to bin it and replace it with something fairer. Read our paper here: bit.ly/40RkT5T

The #GreatScottishSquirrelSurvey gives us a really important snapshot of red and grey squirrel distribution across the country. Last year over 1,800 people took part, recording more than 2,500 squirrels in just one week! Can we beat that this year?

In 2020 the Scottish Government made a national commitment to improve Scotland’s care system by 2030. But plans have been slow to come together after not enough early delivery planning by itself and COSLA. More in the Auditor General and Accounts Commission's joint report: bit.ly/The_Promise_25

🚨BREAKING 40 years ago Margaret Thatcher abolished rent controls in Scotland. The Scottish Parliament just passed a Bill introduced by the Scottish Greens, which will allow them once more! This will keep rents affordable and offer safety and stability to renters. 🙌

Record heat is everywhere, every day. Unprecedented hot nights for this time of the year also in BANGLADESH Both Bogra and Tarash had a Minimum temperature of 29.0C, their hottest September night in history.

Corrected headline: In 2024, 7,100 pedestrians were killed by car drivers who didn’t properly control their cars on the road, and in recent years, more than 1,000 cyclists have been killed annually by car drivers. Safety experts explain how car drivers need to stop killing pedestrians and cyclists

This petition has just passed a million signatures. Compulsory ID will put far too much power in the hands of the Government. Even if you think you can trust Starmer (?!) just consider for a moment how a Tory or Reform Government would abuse that power. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

1 in 9 Scottish species are at risk of extinction, including Scottish Wildcats. Every birth takes them a step back towards safety. These wildcats could soon join those that were released into the wild in 2023, and have since been spotted roaming the Highlands with their kittens.
