All away tickets. £25 or less. Football should be for everyone. It's time the Scottish Premiership joined other leagues and tournaments with a cap on ticket prices. Let's demand better. On May 7th vote Scottish Greens.

Football's increasingly expensive to follow in Scotland.

Price caps are already common in European competitions, and have been in place in England for a decade.

We're working to make football more affordable for fans.

New plans to introduce voucher scheme that will help people save money The Scottish Greens want to introduce a repair voucher scheme that will help people save money.

We've all been there, when something breaks and it's cheaper to bin & replace rather than repair it.

The @scottishgreens.org's discounted repairs scheme would be good for buyers, for businesses and for our planet.

Government to ‘double down not back down’ on clean energy in face of gas spike Key to the plans is breaking the link between gas and electricity prices

As someone who’s been calling for the price of electricity to be decoupled from the high price of gas since 2022, I’m relieved to hear that the Energy Sec is looking to address this. But this announcement deserves two cheers, not a full-throated three 🧵

The National. Greens pledge trade union roles on boards of companies. All companies that receive public funding should have trade union representatives on their boards, the Scottish Greens have said.

Trade unions have been the single most important force for improving the pay and conditions of workers, and for forcing an end to some of the worst employment practices.

We would ensure every major contract and penny of public money goes towards boosting workers rights.

Scottish Government ‘rolling out red carpet’ for UAE despite Sudan war allegations and human rights record Documents show deputy first minister did not raise human rights once on trip to Gulf state accused of fuelling Sudan’s brutal war.

This is a disgraceful way for SNP Government Ministers to operate internationally.
It’s not who we are.

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”.

Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform

Scottish Greens unveil plans for misogyny bill in next Holyrood session The Scottish Greens unveil plans for a Misogyny Bill, accusing the Scottish Government of failing to act urgently on tackling violence towards women.

Violence against women and girls is a national emergency that we all must commit to urgently tackling.

This legislation would be accompanied by funding for violence prevention services in local councils, schools, and community organisations to help end gender-based violence for good.

Want more, better, affordable buses? Public transport hasn't been very public here for years, with routes being slashed and fares going up. The @scottishgreens.org will change this, bringing buses back into public control and moving to making them free for all: @electlauramoodie.bsky.social

It also won't address the sharply rising costs of our inaction on the climate and nature emergencies. Some analysts say this could cost 12% of global GDP as soon as the end of this Parliament.

Greens will recruit more midwives Greens will recruit more midwives - Scottish Greens pledge ‘earn as you learn’ route to recruit more midwives.

Too many women and families are being let down by a maternity system that is under enormous strain while midwives are being asked to do more and more in overstretched services.

That is not fair on them or on the people relying on their care.

A picture of Starmer and Mandelson with Starmer Must Go in the background with green party logo and imprint

Peter Mandelson failed his Government security vetting.

Starmer appointed him as ambassador to the US anyway.

No more buck passing, no more mysteriously vanishing mobile phones, we need the truth.

Starmer must go.

Revealed: Mandelson failed vetting but Foreign Office overruled decision Guardian investigation uncovers decision by UK security officials to deny clearance before Mandelson took up role as US ambassador

Absolutely scandalous - the Foreign Office reportedly granted Mandelson clearance to act as Ambassador despite him failing security vetting.

Both the PM and then-Foreign Sec David Lammy must urgently explain how this decision was made and the extent of their involvement in it.
