Great day speaking to voters around Dunbar high street yesterday. We need more MSPs who will speak up for Palestine and take action to tax the rich so we can tackle the cost of living and fund a just transition. #VoteGreen

Ticket price caps have been in effect in England for over a decade.

I have written to all 42 of Scotland’s professional football clubs urging them to support a £25 cap on away ticket prices.

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. ✊💚

DUNDEE UNITED FANS BACK CAMPAIGN FOR A CAP ON TICKET PRICES! ⚽️

Rising costs are pricing families and working-class supporters out of the game.

That is why I am calling on clubs to show leadership and back a £25 cap on away tickets so that the game remains open and accessible in our communities

Lower bills. Tax the super-rich. Bring back hope! 💚

It was great to be out in Lanarkshire this morning talking to voters about how the @scottishgreens.org plan to deliver on the cost of living, fund public services and save you money!

Did you know it’s just under 100 days until the next Scottish Parliament election?

The @scottishgreens.org will tax the super rich to fund public services and save you money!

ST JOHNSTONE AND PATRICK THISTLE FANS BACK CAMPAIGN FOR A CAP ON TICKET PRICES!⚽️

Both sets of supporters display banners in the 25th minute of the match demanding away ticket prices to be capped at £25.

Football should not be a luxury that only a few can afford!

🚨 Our £2 bus cap launched in Shetland today!

Over the coming months it'll roll out right across the Highlands and Islands. This means you'll never pay more than £2 for a single ticket.

More money in your pocket, and a cleaner environment for everyone. 🙌

I have written to all 42 SPFL chief executives urging them to support a £25 cap on away ticket prices.

I believe with lower prices attendances would be even higher.

Football is often the beating heart of our communities.

It should not be a luxury that only a few can afford.

The £2 bus fare cap for the Highlands and Island begins today in Shetland.

The cap is part of a pilot that was secured by the @scottishgreens.org

It will be expanded across the wider region in the weeks and months ahead.

🚨BREAKING

🟢 Yes: 69
🔴 No: 27

Our bill to ban greyhound racing has just taken a massive step forward after it was backed by the Scottish Parliament at stage 1! 🎉

This is a grave violation of our sovereignty.

Foreign militaries cannot be allowed to kidnap people from Scottish territory.
Two people have been abducted from Scotland in the middle of the night by the US military. Despite an order from our highest court that they be kept here.

The Scottish Government must show that actions have consequences by evicting American troops from their base at publicly-owned Prestwick Airport
