How about you focus on the winners, not the losers.

Maybe they've just grasped what green politics are actually about?

Israel has kidnapped hundreds of people in international waters.

They were trying to break an illegal siege which is starving the people of Gaza.

The flotilla is the best of us 👇

Borders are still showing as Tory. It's Dumfries that's showing yellow.

Israel is now officially committing genocide.

This means that the UK is now officially complicit in genocide.

This means that the UK is now officially denying genocide.

I think your original question is valid, and I'd like to hear the answer from the horses mouth.

Nope. The GPEW and the Scottish Greens are different parties.

If Scottish indy was a Scotland-specific policy, we wouldn't need to ask Westminster's permission for a ref.

Aye ye are. They do not respect all Scottish Green policies. They should agree to a Scottish ref if they are democratic and green.

I think you're missing the point though. If he was PM he'd have to agree whether to agree to a ref.

If they weren't, they wouldn't be green - one of the pillars of green politics is sometimes called 'grassroots democracy' but essentially it's about political power being as close to the people as possible.

Many people in the UK had no idea who Charlie Kirk was before yesterday. Now, the BBC is running a whole programme on him. Strange that they see his murder as more significant than Israel’s assassination of the Prime Minister of Yemen. #bbcbias

I’ve signed this petition to ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times

Petition: Ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times

We want to ensure that a plurality of views from all political parties in Westminster are represented and the nations parliaments are heard all year round, not just election times. The rules for coverage during elections should apply at all times.

The SNP needs to tool up for a dirty fight to the death with the far-right

The Scottish government should lead the battle against extremism … because the Tories and Labour certainly ain’t gonna do it

The SNP must tool up for a dirty fight to the death with the far right

The SNP has two choices: accept its part in the rise of the far-right, or grow a spine and take the fight to extremists.

Surely shoving them off the train would do it. Moving train, of course.
