We welcome ‪@johnswinney.bsky.social‬ suspending public money for arms companies supplying Israel and calling on the UK government to end its trade deal with Israel and stop the import of goods from Israeli settlements.

We find the defence sector driving demand across the board, and the minerals requiring the most significant increases in production are needed for EVs.
August 6, 2025 at 9:54 AM
Talk around the 'green transition' often touts the need for huge increases in mineral mining.

But our findings show that small diversions of minerals from other uses would facilitate the ‪International Energy Agency's renewable energy goals without the need for increasing production.

As Trump meets John Swinney and Keir Starmer on his trip, we have a message for them both: it's time to stand up to him.

Scotland certainly wasn't holding back today in saying what we think of Trump

Trump is giving tax cuts to the rich, free rein to big tech and a boost to fossil fuel corporations.

He’s stripped millions of Americans of their rights, he's silencing critics and undermining the judiciary, academia and media freedom.

He's here in Scotland.

Let's say no to Trump! ⬇️

Brilliant @oxfamscotland.bsky.social investigation shows Scotland is a playground for pollution-spewing private jets ✈️

Includes a shocking rise at Prestwick Airport, owned by @ScotGov: up a third ⬆️ 🤯

A #PrivateJetTax could have raised up to £29m more for climate action 🌍
