Conference Song The Electoral Reform Society Scotland is an independent campaigning organisation working to champion the Scotland rights of voters and build a better democracy in Scotland. We work across the political divide with all the parties, with local campaigners and with civil society to put voters at the heart of Scottish politics. Join us for our event Greens Leading Local Democracy on Saturday at 5.30pm in the Main Hall. electoral-reform.org.uk Welcome to Glasgow, the World’s Friendliest City! I’m delighted to welcome you all to Glasgow, and this wonderful venue, for our Autumn Conference. When I was fi rst elected as a councillor in 2007, I was caught up in debates about building motorways. Thankfully, conversations have moved on, to planning a network of segregated cycle lanes. Glasgow aims to become one of Europe’s most sustainable cities by 2020. During conference, I hope you discover more about the changes taking place in the Dear Green Place. People are making Glasgow. The city’s population is the most ethnically diverse in Scotland and has risen after decades of decline. The city has been transformed by inward migration, and as a dispersal area for those seeking asylum. Planning issues dominated the work of councillors. Decision-making has determined the regeneration activities reshaping the skyline of Glasgow beyond recognition. The Clyde waterfront is now a vibrant creative sector with the Digital Media Quarter and many movie-makers are choosing Glasgow for their fi lm and TV productions. We have ambitions to be sporting champions! The coming of the Commonwealth Games in 2014 stimulated development that included the building of the Hydro at SEC, the Emirates Indoor Arena and Velodrome, and the Athletes’ Village in the East End. Glaswegians have established a track record of success in delivering world-class sporting events. We are still facing many challenges, including poverty and income inequality. Poverty reduction is inextricably linked to the move towards a low-carbon, resource effi cient, and socially inclusive green economy.

  • Green Parties and Elections to the European Parliament, 1979–2019 Green Par Elections
    Chapter 1 Green Parties and Elections, 1979–2019 Green parties and elections to the European Parliament, 1979–2019 Wolfgang Rüdig Introduction The history of green parties in Europe is closely intertwined with the history of elections to the European Parliament. When the first direct elections to the European Parliament took place in June 1979, the development of green parties in Europe was still in its infancy. Only in Belgium and the UK had green parties been formed that took part in these elections; but ecological lists, which were the pre- decessors of green parties, competed in other countries. Despite not winning representation, the German Greens were particularly influ- enced by the 1979 European elections. Five years later, most partic- ipating countries had seen the formation of national green parties, and the first Green MEPs from Belgium and Germany were elected. Green parties have been represented continuously in the European Parliament since 1984. Subsequent years saw Greens from many other countries joining their Belgian and German colleagues in the Euro- pean Parliament. European elections continued to be important for party formation in new EU member countries. In the 1980s it was the South European countries (Greece, Portugal and Spain), following 4 GREENS FOR A BETTER EUROPE their successful transition to democracies, that became members. Green parties did not have a strong role in their national party systems, and European elections became an important focus for party develop- ment. In the 1990s it was the turn of Austria, Finland and Sweden to join; green parties were already well established in all three nations and provided ongoing support for Greens in the European Parliament.

  • Recruited by Referendum: Party Membership in the SNP and Scottish Greens
    Recruited by Referendum: Party membership in the SNP and Scottish Greens Lynn Bennie, University of Aberdeen ([email protected]) James Mitchell, University of Edinburgh ([email protected]) Rob Johns, University of Essex ([email protected]) Work in progress – please do not cite Paper prepared for the 66th Annual International Conference of the Political Science Association, Brighton, UK, 21-23 March 2016 1 Introduction This paper has a number of objectives. First, it documents the dramatic rise in membership of the Scottish National Party (SNP) and Scottish Green Party (SGP) following the 2014 referendum on Scottish independence. The pace and scale of these developments is exceptional in the context of international trends in party membership. Secondly, the paper examines possible explanations for these events, including the movement dynamics of pre and post referendum politics. In doing so, the paper outlines the objectives of a new ESRC- funded study of the SNP and Scottish Greens, exploring the changing nature of membership in these parties following the referendum.1 A key part of the study will be a survey of SNP and SGP members in the spring of 2016 and we are keen to hear views of academic colleagues on questionnaire design, especially those working on studies of other parties’ members. The paper concludes by considering some of the implications of the membership surges for the parties and their internal organisations. The decline of party membership Party membership across much of the Western world has been in decline for decades (Dalton 2004, 2014; Whiteley 2011; van Biezen et al.

  • Minutes, 29Th Council, European Green Party
    29th Council, European Green Party 23-25 November 2018, Berlin, Germany Venue Telekom Hauptstadrepräsentanz Französische Strasse 31a-c Adopted Minutes Friday, 23 November 2018 Welcome Words 13:00 – 13:30 Speakers: • Monica Frassoni: Co-chair of the EGP • Antje Kapek: Co-chair of the Green Group in the Berlin state parliament • Annalena Baerbock: Co-chair of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen Germany Monica Frassoni welcomes the participants to the 29th EGP Council in Berlin. She starts by informing the participants that the two Turkish Greens co-leaders, Eylem Tuncaelli and Naci Sönmez, had their passports confiscated by the Turkish authorities and were not allowed to travel to Berlin. She then salutes the newly elected Green party leaders. She states that this Council officially starts the Greens common European electoral campaign, and that for the first time Greens can be game changers in shaping Europe’s future. She claims that the recent successes of the “Green wave”, which includes electoral and civil rights victories, stem from the fact that Greens have a European character and are seen as an alternative to both status quo mainstream parties and nationalist forces. Monica Frassoni calls for the Greens to transform the Green wave into more votes and garner support for their policies even across party lines, in a moment when the fight against climate change is visibly lagging behind. She also argues that Europe is not a doomed project and stresses the role that Greens have in this battle as the most cohesive pro-European parties. Monica Frassoni warns that Green policies for an ecological transition must be perceived as rooted in solidarity and equity, if they are to be widely supported.

  • May 3Rd 2012 New Directions for Local Councils an Action Plan for Green Councillors in Scotland Message from Patrick Harvie MSP and Alison Johnstone MSP
    The Scottish Green Party Manifesto for local elections May 3rd 2012 New Directions for local councils An action plan for Green Councillors in Scotland Message from Patrick Harvie MSP and Alison Johnstone MSP In 2012 local elections come out of the shadows. For the first time in 17 years council elections are being held in their own right. It is a chance for people to cast their votes on local issues, for the parties that present the best policies for their area, and for the candidates who can show real commitment to that area. We believe that Green candidates are worthy of those votes. Greens in local councils have already shown that they can make a difference. Examples are given throughout this manifesto. Our candidates come to you with track-record of hard work at community level, of developing constructive ideas, of listening to people; and of shaking up the status quo. The voting system also means that every Green vote counts. In 2007 the first Green councillors were elected in Scotland, in Glasgow and Edinburgh. We have Green Party members on Aberdeenshire Council as well now. We expect their numbers to swell in this election, with many more councils having a Green voice on them for the first time. But the election is about more than committed candidates. It takes place at a unique time in our politics. At a UK level the Coalition Government, unchallenged by a scarcely credible opposition, continues its slash and burn approach to public services with scant regard to the needs of the country both now and in the future.

  • 1 Response on Behalf of the Scottish Green Party General Comments The
    Response on behalf of the Scottish Green Party General comments The Scottish Green Party (SGP) welcomes the publication of this draft energy strategy. We welcome, in particular, the whole system approach, reference to other policy areas, and consideration of current practice, and short, medium and longer term targets. We are pleased to take this opportunity to respond to this consultation, and are glad other organisations and individuals can also participate. The SGP would welcome similar discussions in other parts of the UK, and indeed, internationally. We very strongly welcome the Scottish Government’s commitment to honouring international agreements regarding climate change. We believe that Scotland, along with other industrialised nations, must take the lead in acting urgently to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, to avoid dangerous anthropogenic climate change. So we support a key aim of this draft strategy consultation: to work out how to decarbonise the energy sector, while providing for the nation’s needs. We welcome the draft strategy’s discussion of the whole energy system, and its inclusion both of matters which are both devolved to Holyrood and of those reserved to Westminster. We would hope for constructive cooperation between the two governments on these matters, and that any differences in priorities or strategies across administrations will not hamper the implementation of the bold and ambitious final strategy which we hope will arise from this consultation. Chapter 3: Energy supply Q1 What are your views on the priorities for the Scottish Government set out in Chapter 3 regarding energy supply? In answering please consider whether actions are both necessary and sufficient for delivering our vision Regarding the specific five priorities (section 66 of draft strategy) The SGP would want to see much higher prominence given to demand reduction, when discussing energy sources.

  • Our Election Manifesto 2021 Our Common Future
    Our election manifesto 2021 Our common future About us We are a political party called the Scottish Green Party. A political party is a group of people who share the same ideas about how a country should work. We think we are the best political party to run the Scottish government. Our manifesto tells you our plans for how we would make Scotland a better and fairer place for everyone. We call this Our Common Future. We hope you like our plans and vote for us in the election on Thursday 6 May 2021. 2 What is happening now The weather around the world is changing. It is called climate change. Because of climate change we have: • More floods • Heatwaves • Animals dying out 3 Climate change is caused by pollution. Pollution mostly comes from burning things like coal, gas and oil. We burn coal, gas and oil to: • Make electricity • Heat our homes • Drive cars 4 WeW need to stop polluting the world. If we don’t, the climate will get worse aand life will get harder for lots of ppeople. In Scotland the government does not have the powers it needs to: Help stop climate change • Build a fairer and greener society • for everyone Green means doing things in a way that does not harm the climate. 5 Here are our ideas about what we would do to change this. Infrastructure Infrastructure are some of the things we need to make the country work. Things like roads, railways, electricity and gas supplies. We will make sure the way we run our infrastructure also looks after our climate.
