🧵Scotland head to the polls in just over two weeks. Here are what all the parties are saying they will do to tackle the climate crisis (or in the case of the Tories and Reform, completely ignore it).
On the 7th of May, vote like the planet depends on it (because it does!)

Reform UK wants you to believe they are against the political establishment. In reality, they are packed full of the same Tories that caused the issues they want to "solve". Reform UK won't fix this country - they will destroy it.

I think we've seen this all before…
Reform UK is backed by the same billionaires, ex-Tory politicians, and oil and gas giants that have profited from the climate crisis for years, whilst working people suffer the consequences.

Expert says, "a ‘drill baby drill’ approach to extraction would actually cost households more money versus continuing on our path to clean energy.”
Reform UK only wants what is best for their billionaire friends NOT working people.

Reform UK is backed by the same millionaires, ex-Tories and fossil fuel giants that have blocked climate action for years. You can’t fix a broken system by handing it to the people who benefit from keeping it broken.
Let’s stand together for a better future.

Very excited to have my first published byline in a magazine and even happier it is in @Somewhere_ForUs. A beautiful Scottish LGBTQ magazine packed full of amazing queer stories.
You can grab a copy of it their autumn 2024 issue here: somewhereforus.org/product-p…

this is the drag event that @Douglas4Moray said was inappropriate for children
the drag queen is more covered up than i was when i went to finland in the winter!
it’s never about protecting children, it’s about stirring up a culture war & hatred against minorities
ALT A drag event which took place in Moray
