- Reposted by Cameron GarrettGood morning. A regular reminder: a tiny few hoard staggering wealth and own much of the media, while millions struggle to survive. That’s not an accident. It’s a choice made by those in power. Tax wealth. Fund public services. Build an economy for everyone - not the 1%.

- Reposted by Cameron GarrettA new poll puts us in second place! With 7 MSPs we delivered free bus travel under 22s, ended peak rail fares, banned new incinerators, increased taxes on the rich, scrapped school meal debt, introduced rent controls, and much more. Imagine what we could do with double that. 👀

- Reposted by Cameron GarrettFrom London to Edinburgh people want action for Palestine. The UK government is complicit in genocide.
- Every week a Palestine solidarity vigil is held in Dumfries. I was glad to be there today. On the anniversary of the bombing if Nagasaki we say once more say “never again”. But for how much longer do we have to say “never again” before it truly means the end of violence and genocide on Earth.
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettThe sun was shining on us in Kirkcudbright today 🌞 We were *so* close to getting @lauramoodie.bsky.social elected in 2021. Door by door we're making sure she gets over the line next May! 💚🗳️

- All eyes on the freedom flotilla. Overnight Israel have committed yet another war crime. The UK have a legal obligation to act. Email your MP at the link below.
- Reposted by Cameron Garrett💚 This week is volunteers' week - we're thankful to all volunteers who help keep the work of our branches going. 🤝 If you have some time spare and want to get involved volunteering for your branch, reach out and ask what you can do.

- The Scottish Government gives millions to the companies supporting Israeli genocide. This has to end.
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettDouglas Ross wouldn't last a second in the Australian parliament www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZTW...
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettA coalition of charities has today written to the First Minister asking his government to stop #FlamingoLand going ahead at #LochLomond. Letter below. Please write to Ivan McKee (MinisterPF@gov.scot) & ask him to stop this development going ahead. There's still time. ⬇️
- The Scottish Government have caved into wealthy land owners, putting their interests ahead of local communities and Galloway’s natural environment. A hammer blow once again delivered to south west Scotland.
- As expected, the Scottish Government have shamefully axed plans for a Galloway National Park, taking a hammer blow to the local communities and natural environment.
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettProtesters have gathered at Holyrood to demand the SNP Government overturns a decision to allow a "mega resort" to be built on the banks of Loch Lomond.
- The Galloway National Park is in danger. National Parks should drive sustainable inward investment which supports local communities, the local economy and public services. But the Scottish Government have caved, and the plans for Galloway look set to be scrapped.
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettThe UK must take a stand. End arms sales to Israel. It's time to end complicity in oppression and genocide. Read my article below:
- We're now less than a year away from the 2026 Scottish Parliament election - and @dggreens.bsky.social are hitting the ground running. We're ready to elect a Green MSP for South Scotland 💪
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettThe A82 struggles to cope with normal traffic numbers. When this monstrosity is built it will cause major delays for anyone heading to areas further north.
- The future of Loch Lomond is at stake - but it doesn't have to be this way. Why I support a Green vision for Galloway National Park 👇 #SaveLochLomond
- ✅ The Scottish Government has finally adopted the @scottishgreens.org policy of permanently removing peak time rail fares from Scotland’s railways. 🚉 Making rail travel more affordable is crucial to cutting daily costs for commuters and driving down car usage.
- Reposted by Cameron Garrettthis is hilarious. in one breath saying "Patrick is a great leader and has brought us success" and in the next saying they're "failed government minsters". which is it? unserious.
- Reposted by Cameron Garrett"I would encourage everybody in the Scottish Greens to call that behaviour out... and not listen to people that behave in that way."
- Patrick is right. Members, of course, should have their voices heard but this latest trend of a handful of people taking nasty anonymous briefings to the media is beneath who we are as a party. If this is how you intend on approaching politics, think again. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politic...
- Reposted by Cameron Garrettif someone is consistently very loud and critical of a party's leadership on social media, where all the journalists are, and then a publication with a very online readership consistently gets quotes hostile to the leadership, one does not have to be sherlock to deduce where they're coming from lmao
- Reposted by Cameron Garrettthe funny thing is as well is you can usually guess exactly who these "sources" are. Scottish politics and the Green party aren't big enough for modes of communication not to be broadly identifiable lol
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettThe anonymous "sources" and "insiders" releasing anonymous briefings and sniping to Scottish media from within the Scottish Greens need to put up, slap their names on their statements, or shut up. This craven, nasty, back-stabbing approach to internal politics is beneath us and needs to be cut out.
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettA dose of reality for those backing the SNP's new-found support for Tory claims that clean heating "makes people poorer". People need help from govt and from energy companies with the cost of making the switch, but once made it can cut your heating bill in half. Forever.
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettOur debate on ending Scottish Government funding for arms companies complicit in genocide is on now. 🇵🇸Free Palestine. (link to live stream below)
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettThe government could save households £100s a year on their energy bills by making these three changes ⬇️ Why wait?
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettRail fares in Scotland are far too high. 🚂 Tomorrow the Scottish Greens will hold a vote on cutting them. It's time to permanently scrap peak rail fares and stop the above inflation price hike set for April. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...
- Reposted by Cameron GarrettLabour under Attlee, with far greater economic challenges than today, had boldness, vision & a compelling story. Starmer’s Labour fails on all 3 counts, which amounts to laying out a welcome mat to Farage. On eve of publication of #AnotherEngland in paperback, I write for @prospectmagazine.co.uk👇
- Should we even be surprised. Scottish Labour have proven time and time again that they fail on the most basic of moral exercises. It’s staggering that anyone could ever trust a party so two faced and cowardly.
- A Galloway National Park can: 🌲 Support climate and nature ⏫ Boost economic investment and jobs in local communities 🏘️ Tackle the housing crisis 🚎 Enable investment in public transport ✍️ That is what D&G Greens’ response submitted to the GNP consultation outlines. Read more below.

- Reposted by Cameron GarrettAt what point do our parliamentarians remember they have LGBTI+ constituents they are meant to represent, and not to use as a punching bag in a desperate bid to fend off the rise of the reactionary right? Craven. Shameful. Nasty. Unforgiveable. I cannot and will not be silent in the face of this.
