- Reposted by Iris Duane 🇵🇸🇺🇦Great afternoon speaking to voters in Glasgow with @patrickharvie.bsky.social, @irisduane.bsky.social and team! Lots of appreciation for the @scottishgreens.org getting rent control laws passed through Parliament. Now we're working hard to implement them ASAP. ✊💚
- We can’t accept managed decline. We can’t accept lesser than. We cannot accept inequality. I’m delighted to be the Glasgow Kelvin and Maryhill candidate for the Greens 💚 If polls are to be believed in less than 100 days we can flip this seat green ✊🏾 I hope we do that together‼️ #DuaneTrain

- We're delighted to announce @irisduane.bsky.social is your Scottish Green candidate for Glasgow Kelvin & Maryhill. Iris is a fierce advocate for action on the housing emergency & making public transport for people not profit 💚 Help elect a record number of MSPs for Glasgow in May ✊
- I spoke to Oot Scotland about why despite the abuse I receive as a trans woman of colour in politics, hope must ALWAYS win 💚
- The political is personal and the personal is political. I am only one part of this movement, and it’s why I will always fight for a better future ‼️ Read the full piece here ✊🏾 www.ootscotland.co.uk/post/iris-du...
- A year ago today I fought for my local community, achieving the second best @scottishgreens.org Westminster result in history 💚 And I wouldn’t change it for the world, we’ll keep fighting for that better world, no matter how much the government tries to push us down ‼️
- SCOTTISH GREEN MEMBERS ‼️ You have one week left to vote for your next MSP candidates! Backed by cllrs, former MSPs, activists and party officials, this slate of radical green women are looking for your support 💚 Lets make sure Glasgow has socialists on the ballot 💪🏾
- Politics can be done differently 💚 MSPs aren’t just our voices in parliament, they’re our local champions as well‼️ If selected and elected we’re committing to doing just that! Scottish greens, check your emails! It’s time to choose your next MSP candidates 💚
- Nothing about us without us. The diversity of our MSP group is tantamount for the 2026 election and beyond. Our movement is expanding - we must take all of us together 💚 Greens members, please keep diversity in mind when voting in this selection 💚
- Absolutely honoured to be included in this list 💚 The amount of support I’ve received from both fellow candidates and party members in this campaign period has been monumental, I hope I can continue to win your trust! With voting open tomorrow, remember to #RankWomenFirst and be the change 💚
- Glasgow Green members 🗣️ ICYMI: the radical Glasgow greens campaign has been endorsed by cllrs, fmr MSPs and now even another candidates in the race 🤯 It’s clear. Glasgow is ready for change, you can be part of it 💚 linktr.ee/RadicalGlasg...
- 🚨REMINDER🚨 We no longer have gender balancing so No matter how you’re voting please follow the lead of @sgpwomen.bsky.social and RANK WOMEN FIRST 💚 The Glasgow greens have never had a women represent us, we can change that!
- It’s me!
- Across the world we’re saying a wave of younger, more radical and progressive politicians breaking through to challenge the far right. Uniting together communities of all colours, all faiths and taking their lived experience to the office. Mamdani has won for all of us 💚
- We’re now in WEEK 2 of selections! The hustings proved Glasgow is ready for change, we’re ready to be the ones to make it ✊🏾 We must connect with communities, listen to working people and offer a defence against hatred. Any less will see our party kicked back into the long grass.
- We deserves change. Glasgow deserves change. I’m fighting to be Glasgow’s newest socialist Green MSP, but I’m not fighting alone. Vote Ellie #1 Vote Iris #2 Vote Seonad #3 We have a future to fight for 💚 Follow @radicalglagreens.bsky.social for updates.
- I’d greatly encourage members to watch the hustings from this weekend. It’s clear Glasgow is ready for change, it’s just clear yet who will change it - we’d be honoured to have that opportunity 💚
- 5 years ago today I was referred to a gender identity clinic. I am still waiting to be seen. Odds are - I won’t be seen for another 10 years. Vital healthcare is being withheld from myself and thousands of others and the establishment does not care. How do we even fight that?
- We deserves change. Glasgow deserves change. I’m fighting to be Glasgow’s newest socialist Green MSP, but I’m not fighting alone. Vote Ellie #1 Vote Iris #2 Vote Seonad #3 We have a future to fight for 💚 Follow @radicalglagreens.bsky.social for updates.
- Snapped a photo with our Palestine Solidarity campaign co-co Adam Al-khateb at yesterday’s national march … somehow we look like we’re in a gritty cop drama 😅
- What a way to spend a Sunday, now my feet bloody hurt‼️ Just done Five (yes 5!!!) hours of canvassing between ACY and the Hillhead ward 💚 Great to hear the appreciation of our local cllrs hard work and the support they have got for it - thats what it means to build the grassroots 💚
- Glasgow stands proudly against genocide. From South Africa to Israel, this will be an Apartheid free city. Stand up, fight back, be heard. When this is over, when Palestine is free, will you be able to say you did everything to stop this?
- Had a great time at the Refugee fest ceilidh and barbecue‼️ What a lovely afternoon full of dancing, laughter and joy 💚
- Fantastic evening out in Fountainbridge/Craiglockhart for our great candidate Q‼️ So many people excited on the doors to #VoteGreen1 on the 26th of June💚 I’ve certainly got a good feeling about this one 👀
- The disability cuts by the UK government are shameful, forcing 400,000 into poverty. We deserve better than this 💚
- Starmer and co after a year of us begging have decided that Nana deserves to not freeze to death. Conceding that us proles may deserve a semblance of dignity in policy. The reversal of the WFA is positive but still a step backwards. We deserve dignity for all.
- Out in ACT canvassing for @glasgowgreens.bsky.social speaking about the importance of municipal socialism 💚 SO MANY people thinking of voting green for the first time due to the hard work of our local cllr ✊🏾 No rain will stop the #DuaneTrain 🚝
- The polls are OPEN in HLS 💚 The people of HLS have been used as political playthings for the last few weeks. Tired and washed out establishment politicians clutching to their erstwhile careers. Today HLS has a chance to make history. To reject the established lot. Vote green 💚
- We set up ECHR in the wake of of the Holocaust you ensure EVERY European citizen had rights. We must say exactly what this is. It’s a warning. The very enemies we defeated on the beaches are now infesting our political parties. We will defeat them again.
- To any politician that signals to this… I ask one question. Which right have we had too much of?
- Reposted by Iris Duane 🇵🇸🇺🇦I joined colleagues across Parliament to support @SCIAF.bsky.social's call for #DebtJustice. Too many nations are trapped by debt, unable to invest in health, education, or climate resilience. We urgently need a fairer global system. #Jubilee2025 #DebtJustice #TurnDebtIntoHope
- Glasgow’s third largest party out in Govan tonight whilst being snubbed by the BBC … Despite the lack of tv appearances we continue to connect with communities … what is it they’re afraid of? 🥴

- Like GPEW, this summer represents an opportunity for mass change for us Scottish greens. The direction of travel is clear. The left can be united. We can reject managed decline. We can empower socialism. I hope we don’t waste this opportunity.

- ‘Glasgow special’ but two unelected reps, 2 Labour and one rep from a party that has 1 cllr and is about to lose both its seats. As usual no greens … despite us being Glasgow’s 3rd party and polling to increase representation on all levels. Explain to me how it’s not bias?
- Tonight they’ll be speaking about ‘Glasgows future’ with 5 right wing panelist’s who will tell you that there is no other way. Who will tell the public somebody HAS to lose out. Make no mistake, legacy media has created consent for barbarism
- When was the last time you saw a serious socialist on shows like this? Even in cities where we are deeply ingrained, the tories who will have no representation in less than 2 years, are put on a pedestal. It’s a joke.
