Donald Trump continues to threaten the invasion of our allies in Greenland.

Scotland must be clear that we stand with our friends, by ensuring the US military cannot use Scottish infrastructure and assets to launch operations against them.

We owe it to firefighters to keep them safe.

But they suffer a significantly increased risk of ill health as a result of their work.

Tomorrow we're leading a debate in the Scottish Parliament calling for the investment our fire service needs.

Scotland will expand free school breakfast clubs and support former Mossmorran workers.

It will be paid for by taxes on private jets, shooting estates, and million pound homes.

The Scottish Green proposals were accepted by the Scottish Government and announced in today's budget.

✅ Free breakfast clubs: delivered

Funded hours starting at the next term after a child turns three is a problematic, outdated system across many local councils in Scotland.

It's a postcode lottery that's costing families thousands. Tomorrow's budget can change it.

A mansion tax would raise over £125 million for schools, social care, leisure centres, and other local services and infrastructure.

We're calling on the Scottish Government to introduce our mansion tax proposal in tomorrow's budget.

It's time we taxed the super rich fairly to fund the services and infrastructure we all need.

All children deserve the best start in life, regardless of where they live.

We're calling on the Scottish Government to ensure free childcare always starts when a child turns three and not months later.

🚨 We're introducing a £2 bus fare cap in the Highlands & Islands!

Starting at the end of January, the cap will roll out across the region, meaning you'll never pay more than £2 for a single ticket.

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

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.

Every day we see where the politics of Donald Trump and the far right leads.

It's a politics of hate, fear, corruption and destruction.

It's a politics everyone in Scotland must stand unequivocally against, abroad and at home.

🟢 Free bus travel for under 30s
🟢 Expand free school meals
🟢 Childcare free from three

These are the kind of changes we need in next week's budget if we're to reduce the cost of living and give young people the best start in life.

Reintroducing lynx would be an important step in restoring our nature and biodiversity.

A native species in Scotland before being driven to extinction, the Highlands could support up to 400 of these iconic wildcats.

Childcare is extortionate, and the current government offering is leaving families struggling.

Greens are campaigning to deliver free child care to all children from the day they turn three years old to support families.

Trump's illegal invasion and occupation of Venezuela must end.

We stand in full solidarity with the people of Venezuela. This kind of blatant US imperialism cannot be allowed to stand.

It's time for a clean energy revolution.

Scotland has an abundance of clean, cheap, green, renewable energy, we don't need more expensive fossil fuel projects like Rosebank.

2026 must be the year of climate action. 🌍

Thousands of Scots will be dipping into waters today for a New Year's dook.

But in just 12 months, a reported 30 million litres of raw sewage were dumped into our lochs, rivers, and seas.

We're calling for urgent investment to tackle water pollution and clean Scotland's waters.

Happy New Year, Scotland! 🎉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Let's keep the push going for a greener independent Scotland in 2026 💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A toxic White House is trying to export its toxic policies to our country.

Under no circumstances should Scotland be subjected to chlorine-washed poultry or hormone-treated beef.

🚨Scotland’s coastal waters are at risk!

Evidence shows that salmon farms are having disastrous effects on our waters and are threatening endangered species.

We need a stop to licensing now to protect Scotland's waters. greens.scot/ProtectScotl...
