I don't have anything sensible to say on what's happening in Holyrood yet, but I just had a really positive meeting with The City of Edinburgh Council officers about the forthcoming sexual harassment policy that Greens successfully called for, and am reflecting that change can come in many ways.

This reactive & impulsive response by Humza Yousaf is exactly what was making me wary of continuing the Bute House Agreement recently.

This shows great weakness, not leadership, in how feart he is of a healthy party democracy like in the Greens.

This is a good news story: an The City of Edinburgh Council manager told us last week that the pavement parking ban was 'the best thing that's ever happened to footway maintenance' for the city🙂

We condemn Sandyford's decision to ban endocrine treatment for under-18s, citing the internationally discredited social murder charter #Cass Review

Using #Cass over the 100+ studies it threw out is a decision that puts prejudice over medicine

It must be immediately reversed.

The Living Well Locally project in Dalry looks really promising. It brings some much-needed investment to the area and will help people walk, wheel and cycle. Like any other big project, it will need residents to give their views, so that it serves their needs. Please comment…

The idea that someone cannot make autonomous decisions about their own life below the age of 25 is a direct threat to the autonomy of all young people. What separates gender from access to abortion or the right to vote?

This is a very dangerous and harmful proposal.

Coming up later this month: a whole host of great activities at Drylaw Neighbourhood Centre's Future Friendly Fun Day! 🎈

Make your own tote bag, get your bike serviced, share your views on how to improve Drylaw Park & more. 🤗

Fantastic to listen to Cllr Jule Bandel explain their experiences as a young Councillor and what Green Cllrs have achieved in the last two years

I was proud to open Scottish Greens conference this morning on behalf of the Edinburgh Greens - standing in solidarity with Palestine, reaffirming our Green values, and talking about the great work Councillors have been doing around the country for a greener, fairer Scotland 💚

Cllr Alys Mumford welcoming #SGPConf to Edinburgh 💚

We are very lucky to have such passionate and hardworking Scottish Greens councillors. Really enjoyed hearing about our nationwide #GreenWins and a reiteration of our support for a Free Palestine 🇵🇸

CAAT: The UK is complicit in Israel’s killing of UK aid workers in Gaza

7 aid workers, incl. 3 UK citizens, were killed by a strike from an Elbit Systems Hermes 450 drone. It's powered by a R902(W) Wankel engine, made in UK by Elbit's UAV Engines Ltd(1/7)

Israel has:
- killed Palestinians for walking in the wrong direction
- killed Palestinians waving white flags
- killed paramedics going to save a dying little Palestinian girl
But it is only now, when Europeans are killed, that an independent investigation is warranted. Right.

You can't unintentionally bomb an aid convoy three separate times.

Just one week left to respond to the Scottish Govt consultation on ending conversion practices!

We want:

- A trans & ace inclusive ban
-For everyone to be able to live true to themselves
-To protect people from harm
-No consent loophole
