Pinned
Have been getting quite a few new followers here - hello! 👋

I'm Anthony Carroll: a Councillor for Dennistoun, a Bailie for the City of Glasgow, & a big Doctor Who fan.💚

I post a mix of local politics patter & Dr Who Virgin New Adventure novel larks I do on the podcast Too Broad & Too Deep! 🟦
An honour to be part of Glasgow's Holocaust Memorial Day event along with our city's pupils.🕯️

Remembering the atrocities of the past must fuel our fight for a future free of oppression for all 💚

Yesterday many gathered at Buchanan steps in solidarity with those in Minnesota who are standing up to the ICE regime & their killings ❌

They have brought death and destruction to communities - we must resist Reform & Tory plans to have an UK-style ICE here ✊

Looking forward to seeing an eco-socialist @greenparty.org.uk MP elected for Denton & Gorton, not a stooge for Starmer.

Best of luck to @zackpolanski.bsky.social & Co down south - it's time for people & planet over profit 💚✊
NEW: Andy Burnham blocked for standing in the Denton by-election.

8-1 against.

Lucy Powell only vote in favour.

So while standing in May's election for Glasgow Southside, George Galloway goes headline-chasing down south.

Clear he doesn't care a jot for Glasgow or Gorton - I hope we'll see @hollybruce.bsky.social as the 1st Green MSP for Glasgow Southside, & a 1st Green MP for Gorton & Denton 💚

How can we trust Scottish Labour to take buses into public control, when they take £100ks from private owners hell bent on stopping it? 🤔

Tomorrow, Nigel Farage hand-picks Reform's Scottish leader.

If he can't trust his members to lead his party or select their MSPs, why should Scots trust Reform? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Folk want MSPs to stand up for them, not ex-Tory puppets in Parliament controlled by Farage ❌

Pitfull politics from Skud All Sarwar.

He pops up on umpteen ads & social media posts, but him & Labour do Skud All in their actual jobs negotiating for Scotland's People & our Planet before Profit ✊

If you want MSPs who will do that job, then you know Greens will do when Labour can't be arsed 💚
Scottish Green MSPs have used budget negotiations to deliver free bus travel for young people, scrap peak rail fares, fund nature restoration, expand free school meals and more.

Labour have campaigned for nothing and achieved nothing.
January 8, 2026 at 7:16 PM
Whether it's an defected Tory Lord, a defected Tory MSP, or a defected Tory Councillor - they will all be Farage's appointed puppet who'll do skud all for Scotland ❌

Voters can elect fighters for Scotland or for Farage - I know who I'll be siding with 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💚✊

Putin's invasion of Ukraine rightly led to boycotts, divestment, and sanctions.

As the USA installs itself as rulers of Venezuela, Europe must consider making similar measures against the American regime.

Stand against imperial warlords, be they Putin or Trump.
Donald Trump said the US would 'run' Venezuela until a transition of power takes place after American forces captured strongman leader Nicolás Maduro on Saturday.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

I spoke at the rally of work Green Councillors have done, including those now in Your Party.

Building a popular movement against those who wish to truly wreck our communities like Reform isn't done via petty tweeting, but working where we can for Scotland's People & our Planet before Profit ✊💚

Lighting in Alexandra Park is something quite a few folk have been raising. 💡

So myself, council officers, & residents walked around discussing locations to improve park users’ safety, especially for women.

I’ll keep pressing to progress this work with officers & the community in the new year 💚

Today, Glasgow's Green Councillors wrote to David Lammy demanding urgent action from him in the case of the 8 alleged members of Palestine Action who have been on hunger strike.

This is a crisis - the Justice Secretary must intervene & hear their pleas ✊️🇵🇸
