Humza Yousaf hails 'rededication to independence' at Edinburgh rally
HUMZA Yousaf hailed the Yes movement’s “rededication to the cause of independence” as thousands turned out to the Edinburgh march and rally.
The First Minister told The National the number of people who attended the event, hosted by Believe in Scotland and Yes for EU, was “above” his expectations following his speech.

Humza Yousaf stands with @patrickharvie after he experienced homophobic abuse on the campiagn trail. No word from Murdo, Alex, Anas or Dougie. They have been on Xitter so long that they genuinely believe all the anti-trans/LGBT socks are real voters and don't wish to upset them. We see you.
"Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie has warned of a rise in homophobia after being verbally abused while on the campaign trail.
The MSP called a passer-by a "bigot" after he shouted out a slur during an interview with BBC Scotland News."
“I don’t have any problem with the principle of co-operation with the Greens,” Forbes said. “It’s about the substance.”
Go. Away.
"So it’s little wonder both sides are attacking the most progressive political co-operation deal the UK has ever witnessed.
They can’t win on policy, they have lost on credibility, so finger-pointing and name-calling is all they have left."
@patrickharvie for the National.

"Robin Harper, 82, accused his former colleagues of lurching too far to the left as if “moving into the gap” vacated by the Scottish Socialist Party.
He said he would resist any “attempt to needlessly destroy the United Kingdom...”"

Fellow Greens! I’m running for ECC ordinary member. I’m Malena on Slack, look me up if you want to chat or have a look at my statement. Vote for me because every committee needs an angry Latin lady! #ScottishGreens
I see a number of #ScottishGreens back on my feed all of a sudden! I'm assuming something's happened to The Other Website.
Welcome back - this is my political alt, feel free to share it with other party members. #IWW and #Unite folk as well.
From The Ferret
"More than 300 racing greyhounds died last year in the UK and 4,354 injuries to dogs were recorded, according to new data.
Scottish Greens MSP Mark Ruskell, who has been campaigning for a phase out of greyhound racing, described the number of greyhounds dying at racetracks as “shocking”."

Off to do a talk on nonbinary identities and narrative reclamation at the Glasgow Green Party AGM. Pleasure to have been invited (though obv I'd have been going anyway!) :)

Scottish Greens-organised petition for Buffer Zones around abortion clinics. Presumably a large quantity of signatures will make any arguing their case in Holyrood much easier so seems well worth signing: https://greens.scot/BufferZones #AbortionRights #ScottishPolitics #ScottishGreens

#Introduction for a new instance!
My name's Korin, pronouns they/them.
I'm a #union rep/organiser in #UniteTheUnion and also a proud member of the #IWW.
Politically I'm an #anarchosyndicalist at heart, i.e. I believe unions will give people a respite from capitalism enough that they can start questioning hierarchies and eventually end them. Though pragmatically for as long as we have political parties then I am very happy in the #ScottishGreens.
Any other #queer #anarchists, say hello!
