Scottish Greens: Bold Fixes, Historic Win

Scottish Greens Co-Leaders Launch Historic Election Campaign: Bold Fixes for Cost-of-Living Crunch and Climate Crisis

The Scottish Greens co-leaders, Gillian MacKay and Ross Greer, kicked off their Holyrood election campaign in Edinburgh, promising a historic win on May 7th. MacKay outlined ambitious solutions to address the cost-of-living crisis and climate emergency, including fair pay for care workers, nationwide mental health hubs, land grab limits, and a significant expansion of free childcare.

The partys membership has surged past 10,150, with new members joining daily from across Scotland, including first-time Green voters. Greer framed the election as a choice between hope and a broken status quo or hate-fueled politics, highlighting past achievements like free bus rides for youth and rent controls after four decades.

Looking ahead, the Greens plan to push for universal free buses, aggressive climate action, and taxing the top two percent of wealthy individuals to fund services for all. With just 35 days left until the election, the party is rallying support for a greener, kinder Scotland.
