If you agree with what you've heard tonight -

💷Whilst working people have faced the brunt of the Tory cost-of-living crisis, the richest in our society have made record profits.

🟢Only a vote for the Scottish Greens is a vote to tax the super-rich to properly fund our local services.

🗞️Why has a well-tested and proven environmental policy such as this become fodder for myths, political U-turns and intense industry lobbying?

Here’s the new A6! More than >£220m for 16 miles of road to be dualled, it took 5 years! Now try upgrading the 96 miles of the A75, like some parties are pushing. By the same standards, that’s BILLIONS of £s and 30 years of disruption!

D&G need a railway, not a dual carriageway.

@ChadFrischmann 1) the painting wasn’t damaged. 2) the first IPCC report was in 1990, almost 1/3 of a century ago & well before these protesters were born. Since then the action I, you & our generation have tried has failed to stop annual CO2 emissions rise by over 60%. So, what is “the way”?

Kirsten shows what having even one Green on your council can achieve, as her motion calling on Strathclyde Pension Fund to divest from fossil fuels passes South Lanarkshire Council overwhelmingly!

@DG_Greens Is it ok to celebrate this terminal when it might be considered greenwash for a company selling bottled water - enough of it to need their own freight terminal?
