Today is the day! Greens will ban greyhound racing in Scotland for good.

Today's the day we can finally end greyhound racing in Scotland, for good. Dogs like Kaas - and countless others - deserve so much better. We're now at the final hurdle. It's time to get this over the line. greens.scot/news/time-to-e… #unboundthegreyhound

Tonight the Scottish Parliament has the chance to back our bill and finally end the cruel 'sport' of greyhound racing.

Listening to incredibly moving speeches ahead of the vote on the Assisted Dying Bill at Holyrood tonight. I will be voting for the bill at 10pm, it now has robust safeguards, choice for the individual to end their suffering and compassion must be put first.

If the 10% voting for Green, voted for Plaid we’d have a progressive, independence leaning super majority govt. But because our media is England-centric people will think they’re voting for Polanski in the Senedd elections 🤦🏻‍♂️

There is a dangerous silence surrounding what is happening in Palestine right now. As international attention has shifted to Israel’s wars across the region, state-backed settler militias are intensifying their campaign of terror in the occupied West Bank — such systematic terror attacks are being almost entirely ignored by UK and global media. Last night, three Palestinians were murdered in Abu Falah. Days earlier, settlers killed two brothers — Mohammad Taha Maamar (52) and Faheem Taha Maamar (48) — in Qaryut. Let us be clear: these settler militias are acting in accordance with the policies of the government of Israel. Operating under cover of occupation forces, they are an arm of the Israeli state, advancing a single goal: the annexation of the West Bank and the systematic erasure of Palestinian national life. While regional wars dominate the headlines, Israel is accelerating its assault on Palestine — a genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank — shielded by the deafening silence of the global media. History may not repeat. But it definitely rhymes. Demand your media covers Palestine. Demand your representatives act. Silence is complicity. #Palestine #Gaza #WestBank english.wafa.ps/Pages/Details/…

The Scottish Government must review this practice as a matter of urgency and put public safety and environmental protection before convenience and profit

@clrandrewcooper @poll_checker @TheGreenParty @KirkleesCouncil Built on solid decades of achievement for your communities. About time!

@poll_checker is predicting in the May Elections that @TheGreenParty will be the largest party on @KirkleesCouncil They also say we will win seats in 5 out of 6 wards in the Huddersfield Constituency. Labour zero. It is clear that only Greens can beat Reform in Huddersfield

Happy International Women's Day! We'll always work towards a fairer, greener, more feminist Scotland. 💚

Unbelievably dangerous.

👇utterly extraordinary.
