Retro Luddite

Likes hillwalking and rent control.
If anything, this is an advert to abolish the Scottish Youth Parliament
Ten years ago today Scotland lowered the voting age to 16. I was so proud to lead on @officialsyp.bsky.social's campaign. We convinced Parliament to trust Scotland's young people and the last decade has shown how right that decision was.

The much advertised rent adjudication process championed by @patrickharvie.bsky.social is coming to an end in March.

It never ceases to amaze me how much energy the SGP put into shallow campaigns.

Won't someone think of my poor child who can't take a passport on the French school trip 😱

And they wonder why the public has such disdain for them. Absolute Reform fuel.
