Here's what Keir Starmer doesn't want you to know about the war on Iran:

This is Apartheid. It's morally disgusting - and comes at the same time as Israel is committing an ongoing genocide. To see the Labour Government defend Israel repeatedly will horrify the British public - it cannot go on like this.

No, no and no. #FactoryFarming - food waste on a massive scale - is not the future of a sustainable, secure food system, as well as having awful environmental and #AnimalWelfare impacts www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Households are being stretched by increased costs and rising bills. Greens will deliver targeted, practical action to support communities on the frontline of the cost-of-living crisis. We will make bus travel free for everyone in Scotland. #VoteScottishGreens

This is a really important change and I’m very glad to see that government is thinking about reducing road danger and looking out for people walking, wheeling (and cycling). 🦓 🤸🏽 🦓 🤸‍♀️ 🦓 Simple zebra crossings for the win.

Every Wednesday 10.30 to 12.30 sessions are being organised at CATCH by the NHS to support people with mental wellbeing and low mood please do come along, lets break that stigma together the Green Party will continue to help people in our community for a whole host of issues.

John Swinney seems determined to make sure everyone knows that if you care about climate action, you have to vote Green.

It's time to bring hope back to politics. Let's demand better. Vote Scottish Greens.

Large corporate farms are already squeezing out ordinary farmers. Allowing more factory farms will mean more river pollution, more environmental damage and more animals in cruel conditions. Government should be halting the trend towards more mega farms, not encouraging it.

Drilling for more oil & gas in the North Sea won't lower bills, it won't make us more energy independent and it won't insulate us from price shocks. A Labour backslide on this would be a huge betrayal. Double down on renewables. Insulate every home. Lower bills, permanently.

Goes without saying, my boyfriend is obviously Number 1! Spoke to Prospect about film, TV, and celebrity crushes for their culture section 👇🏼 www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/views/hinter...

Hugely important discussion with climate expert Tessa Khan. Extremely concerning to hear the Labour Government potentially backing off from their climate commitments. They'd be selling us all out for profit. m.youtube.com/watch?v=TCKt...

Keir Starmer utterly silent on the war crimes that are happening. He'll drone on about a special relationship but nothing to say on war crimes in Iran, Lebanon, Palestine. Trump and Netanyahu able to behave like we have law of the jungle.

“Yesterday’s judgement is a huge blow to all our civil liberties.” @mothinali.bsky.social on the convictions of two organisers of peaceful pro-Palestine protests. The Green Party stands in solidarity with those organising to end genocide and demand justice.

Average of all the polls. We just hit crossover day! Great moment to join as we take on Reform next. Join.greenparty.org.uk

media couldn't wait to talk up reform as the tories' replacement but they're conspicuously silent about the greens replacing labour. even after literally doing it in gorton and denton

Today we launched our campaign for the Scottish Parliament election! On May 7th let's demand free bus travel for everyone, the biggest expansion of funded childcare in a generation, investment in climate and nature, and that the rich pay their fair share. On May 7th let's demand better.

The Greens have now overtaken both the Conservatives and Labour, according to the latest polling average

More drilling in the North Sea would be a catastrophic mistake for Labour - locking us into high bills, and betraying their climate ambitions. If they’re serious about energy security, the answer is to double down instead on renewables and efficiency - and lower bills for good

“It’s important we present, and create, an alternative.” @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @rachelmillward.bsky.social on the energy of hundreds of thousands taking to the streets at the Together Alliancemarch and the need to harness this to defeat the far right in local elections and beyond.

The stress of simply getting off a tube train when the staff member with the mini ramp doesn’t appear as the doors open shared by @annalandre.com. And it’s very obvious that those of us not using wheelchairs can be rather more helpful or at least understanding if we spot this happening.

This is a critical moment for Scotland. It’s a critical moment for our planet. Let’s demand better. On 7th May, vote @scottishgreens.org 💚

Talking of polling averages ... Greens ahead Labour.

Green Gain in Rossendale Borough Council Hareholme and Waterfoot Ward By-Election

A terrible decision, and one which will do huge damage to the Government's climate credentials. As Ed knows, this drilling won't lower bills, but instead it sends a clear message that Britain won't be a world leader on ending oil and gas exploitation

This certainly isn't Nicola Sturgeon's SNP any longer 🌍🔥 Only the @scottishgreens.org are serious about tackling the climate crisis and lowering bills by ending our reliance on oil & gas. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Labour completely and utterly captured by Fossil Fuel interests. Totally out of touch with public sentiment, and nothing more than pseudo-Tories and Blairites. Vote accordingly.

Hareholme & Waterfoot (Rossendale & Darwen) Council By-Election Result: 🌍 GRN: 37.7% (+9.2) ➡️ RFM: 34.5% (New) 🌹 LAB: 19.2% (-27.9) 🌳 CON: 6.8% (-17.6) 🔶 LDM: 1.8% (New) Green GAIN from Labour. Changes w/ 2024.

Labour have demonstrated over and over again that they are not up to the task of tackling the climate crisis. They're not up to the task of protecting our children and grandchildrens future. We must fight back. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Scottish Greens on verge of historic result www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

I’m sick of it. We’re being held back in the interest of drilling for dead dinosaurs leftovers.

A tragic death should unite us in empathy—yet too often it exposes blame and division. We need a societal reset: the purpose of any journey is to arrive safely. Behind the wheel, dignity and humility matter—yet too many act with selfish dominance. Where else is risking others’ lives so prevalent?

"Urgent need for a cost-benefit analysis without the vested interests" ... and counting #ClimateEmergency and #PublicHealth costs, which have to make it a no go on Heathrow expansion www.thetimes.com/business/com...

Under 22s and over 60s already get a free bus pass. Expanding it to everyone is one of the simplest, quickest and most effective steps we can take to support commuters and families as costs continue to rise.

As @sianberry.bsky.social says: “No-one should sleep easy knowing that these sorts of institutions, which have direct access to MPs and key policy influencers, can be used to launder Kremlin talking points.” The Oxford Institute did not respond to repeated requests for comment

Great to be out in Bungay and Halesworth again last week. It's wonderful to see the GP surgery expansion in Bungay, made possible by funding secured by Green councillors who work hard to make a real difference locally. Green councillors have a track record of listening and getting things done.

If we want secure jobs, a safe climate for the next generation & true energy independence the only route is through renewables. We know it works, it lower bills & makes us safe from energy shocks. We just need politicians brave enough to stand up to the oil & gas lobby & their mates in Reform.

A huge betrayal. Won't lower bills. Won't give us more energy security. Won't insulate from price shocks. And sends a clear message to the world that we are backing new oil and gas drilling. www.lbc.co.uk/article/ed-m...

There is growing evidence of grave violations of International Law that could amount to war crimes. Starmer must stop aiding this war mongering President. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"Why not invest in industries that will guarantee jobs for the future?" @scottishgreens.org co-leader @ross-greer.bsky.social suggests that Scotland should invest in creating jobs in the renewable industry sector.
