Last week, @scottishgreens.org members elected our new co-leaders: @gillianmacmsp.bsky.social and @ross-greer.bsky.social. I wish them - @lornaslater.bsky.social - absolutely all the best with what's next, and I'm very grateful to those of you who backed my campaign. Thank you! 💐

STV's Scotland Tonight yesterday covered the @scottishgreens.org co-leader election. I told them that in these dangerous times the Greens need to be the truth-tellers calling out the crisis and helping communities prepare for what's coming.

What if politicians and the market aren't actually in control of #EarthSystemsCollapse? What if they don't have a plan to save us? We end up needing to fall back on mutual support in our local communities.
#ScottishGreens #BackDominic #ProtectWhatWeLove #VoteNow

Action on #EarthSystemsCollapse - the breakdown of climate, nature and the basis of our life on Earth - is a matter of (inter)national security. That's why I'm unapologetic in speaking about the predictions of 2, 3, 4 degrees of heating and 3 billion people displaced. #BackDominic #ProtectWhatWeLove

🗳 Voting in the @scottishgreens.org internal elections is open until Friday at noon. We're choosing people to fill a host of positions, including the two co-leaders. So far as I recall from past occasions, turnout can be as low as 10-20%. This is just a shout-out to encourage members please to vote!

🗳 Voting is underway to select the next Co-Leaders of the Scottish Green Party.
🍀 Want me as a grassroots co-leader inspiring and supporting community action?
1️⃣ Here's why you need to give me your 1st preference vote!

At Peebles Show today. Just love the Clydesdales. Also great memories of showing our Soay and Shetland sheep when I was a kid. Great to see the poultry tent back in action, too! Such a special annual event for our community.

Jonas Laursen asked how I felt about the Bute House Agreement. Answer: mostly in favour. But when climate targets were abruptly abandoned, it became clear we must speak much more plainly about the future. #ScottishGreens #BackDominic #ProtectWhatWeLove

🗳️ Voting opens today! @scottishgreens members, please consider my pitch to be a grassroots co-leader, working alongside a Holyrood colleague to #ProtectWhatWeLove 💚 ##BackDominic

Our hope must be founded on proportionate and timely action. Otherwise, it's #hopium.

#ProtectWhatWeLove #ScottishGreens #EarthSystemsCollapse #ClimateBreakdown

We need to talk more about #adaptation. Not to give up on decarbonisation - but because the already unavoidable future heating is very, very bad. #ProtectWhatWeLove

Here's my pitch to all Scottish Greens in South Scotland, asking you to place me high on the regional list for Holyrood. Voters here have backed me time and again. Together, we must ignite a #CivicUprising, to salvage prospects for #LifeOnEarth. Please give me a high preference vote. Thank you.

Happy about government CCS investment? They're a smokescreen for continued fossil fuel extraction. Let's give that cash to poorer households for energy saving measures, raising them from poverty and reducing emissions. We need a #CivicUprising against corporate capture of government. #ForLifeOnEarth

International Panel on Climate Change prediction: catastrophe. This science motivates my political career. Some political/media organisations are bankrolled by corporate interests who don't want you to know or believe how much damage they're wreaking on the world. Don't imagine they're on your side.

I support the #RewildingNation proposals from the Scottsh Rewilding Alliance. But we desperately need action at pace and at scale - and it must go hand in hand with rapid decarbonisation of global economies. This requires more than electoral politics. It demands a civic #uprising - #ForLifeOnEarth.
