I have written alongside @patrickharvie.bsky.social to the Secretary of State for Scotland about changes they've made to Glasgow's funding.
They now risk the future of the Molendinar Centre - a vital space for Germiston & Blackhill that mustn't be left behind by new UK Gov funding policies. 💚

Astounding, but typical, arrogance from @lucympowell.bsky.social.
Labour MPs genuinely don't get how wildly unpopular their party is now.
You're not entitled to progressive voters, as you're barely a progressive party anymore - no wonder Greens are doing better than ever before.

Over 100 people came at short notice to support St Paul's Molendinar Centre, faced with closure after UK Government funding changes.
I'll be working with them to make the case for funding to any and all partners who can help - they are a vital space for Blackhill & Germiston 💚

So while standing in May's election for Glasgow Southside, George Galloway goes headline-chasing down south.
Clear he doesn't care a jot for Glasgow or Gorton - I hope we'll see @hollybruce.bsky.social as the 1st Green MSP for Glasgow Southside, & a 1st Green MP for Gorton & Denton 💚

Tomorrow, Nigel Farage hand-picks Reform's Scottish leader.
If he can't trust his members to lead his party or select their MSPs, why should Scots trust Reform? 🏴

Pitfull politics from Skud All Sarwar.
He pops up on umpteen ads & social media posts, but him & Labour do Skud All in their actual jobs negotiating for Scotland's People & our Planet before Profit ✊

Scottish Green MSPs have used budget negotiations to deliver free bus travel for young people, scrap peak rail fares, fund nature restoration, expand free school meals and more.
Labour have campaigned for nothing and achieved nothing.

Putin's invasion of Ukraine rightly led to boycotts, divestment, and sanctions.
As the USA installs itself as rulers of Venezuela, Europe must consider making similar measures against the American regime.
Stand against imperial warlords, be they Putin or Trump.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.
