- Why does a nurse in Perth pay a higher tax rate on their shift than a multi-millionaire does on their stock portfolio? 🏥💸 In Scotland, work is taxed more than wealth. It’s time to fair up. We’re calling for a Wealth Tax to fund our schools & climate action. Tax wealth, not work! 🌍💚 #VoteGreen

- Some fascinating reading: buff.ly/BydKgdf "... found that nearly 2 in 5 (38%) people in Scotland are feeling politically disaffected ..." is a very sad state of affairs! The good news is that we have the power to chance this in May! #Holyrood #VoteGreen

- Reposted by Perth & Kinross GreensThe BBC must take a stand against Israel's war crimes and join the growing boycott of the Eurovision Song Contest.
