Now that election expenses are back I can reveal that for every single one of my constituency votes (9003) each cost my team around 0.03 pence. Now that’s what an efficient ground game looks like 🤣

Out with Cllr Carroll & Cllr Hutchison at the Kinning Park Spogomi with #NaeTrash & Get Govan Gleaming 💚 What a great initiative, but it’s worrying how much dirt is on our streets Whoever forms the government must ensure our councils are well funded so we have a well resourced cleansing service ✊🏾

I’ve taken a break from the ‘other site’ as things settle down, but on here I just wanted to say, thank you to the people of Glasgow who trust and believe in me. We fought a positive election campaign and it has clearly worked 💚 I’m looking forwards to the next 5 years of progress ✊🏾💚

If the polls are right, on the Glasgow List it’s Greens or Reform… A choice between progress or taking us backwards. Between Scotland making our own choices or Farage making them for us. Between Hope vs Hate. This May 7th, Vote Green 💚🙏🏾

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

It was an honour to join today’s Maryhill against Racism March with @patrickharvie.bsky.social 💚 In Glasgow that last list seat is between Greens and Reform, between Hope or hate, between progress or being dragged into Farage’s world … Glasgow we can be the difference, this May 7th vote Green 💚

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

We can’t accept managed decline. We can’t accept lesser than. We cannot accept inequality. I’m delighted to be the Glasgow Kelvin and Maryhill candidate for the Greens 💚 If polls are to be believed in less than 100 days we can flip this seat green ✊🏾 I hope we do that together‼️ #DuaneTrain

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 04/07/2025

A year ago today I fought for my local community, achieving the second best @scottishgreens.org Westminster result in history 💚 And I wouldn’t change it for the world, we’ll keep fighting for that better world, no matter how much the government tries to push us down ‼️

Nothing about us without us. The diversity of our MSP group is tantamount for the 2026 election and beyond. Our movement is expanding - we must take all of us together 💚 Greens members, please keep diversity in mind when voting in this selection 💚

Across the world we’re saying a wave of younger, more radical and progressive politicians breaking through to challenge the far right. Uniting together communities of all colours, all faiths and taking their lived experience to the office. Mamdani has won for all of us 💚

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

We deserves change. Glasgow deserves change. I’m fighting to be Glasgow’s newest socialist Green MSP, but I’m not fighting alone. Vote Ellie #1 Vote Iris #2 Vote Seonad #3 We have a future to fight for 💚 Follow @radicalglagreens.bsky.social for updates.

What a way to spend a Sunday, now my feet bloody hurt‼️ Just done Five (yes 5!!!) hours of canvassing between ACY and the Hillhead ward 💚 Great to hear the appreciation of our local cllrs hard work and the support they have got for it - thats what it means to build the grassroots 💚

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 14/06/2025

Glasgow stands proudly against genocide. From South Africa to Israel, this will be an Apartheid free city. Stand up, fight back, be heard. When this is over, when Palestine is free, will you be able to say you did everything to stop this?

Fantastic evening out in Fountainbridge/Craiglockhart for our great candidate Q‼️ So many people excited on the doors to #VoteGreen1 on the 26th of June💚 I’ve certainly got a good feeling about this one 👀

The disability cuts by the UK government are shameful, forcing 400,000 into poverty. We deserve better than this 💚

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

Starmer and co after a year of us begging have decided that Nana deserves to not freeze to death. Conceding that us proles may deserve a semblance of dignity in policy. The reversal of the WFA is positive but still a step backwards. We deserve dignity for all.

Out in ACT canvassing for @glasgowgreens.bsky.social speaking about the importance of municipal socialism 💚 SO MANY people thinking of voting green for the first time due to the hard work of our local cllr ✊🏾 No rain will stop the #DuaneTrain 🚝

The polls are OPEN in HLS 💚 The people of HLS have been used as political playthings for the last few weeks. Tired and washed out establishment politicians clutching to their erstwhile careers. Today HLS has a chance to make history. To reject the established lot. Vote green 💚

We set up ECHR in the wake of of the Holocaust you ensure EVERY European citizen had rights. We must say exactly what this is. It’s a warning. The very enemies we defeated on the beaches are now infesting our political parties. We will defeat them again.

Glasgow’s third largest party out in Govan tonight whilst being snubbed by the BBC … Despite the lack of tv appearances we continue to connect with communities … what is it they’re afraid of? 🥴

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 04/06/2025

‘Glasgow special’ but two unelected reps, 2 Labour and one rep from a party that has 1 cllr and is about to lose both its seats. As usual no greens … despite us being Glasgow’s 3rd party and polling to increase representation on all levels. Explain to me how it’s not bias?

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 01/06/2025

🚨The SNP are selling our public lands 🚨 The latest news from Loch Lomond is shameful, we must come together to protect local communities, our environment and public areas ‼️ We will not let it stand 🤢

Had a lovely afternoon at the Barras annual Hong Kong Market 🇭🇰 Our incredibly city is so beautifully diverse, no amount of racist politicians will ever change that ✊🏾 People make Glasgow. Culture makes Glasgow. Immigrants make Glasgow.

Spent today in HLS for the upcoming by-election putting forward why a green vote is a good vote. With so many being left behind, we cannot let reform pick up what’s left. We must be the party of hope 💚

Labour and Tory activists falling over themselves to applaud Jenrick for his populist musings. Instead of chasing fare dodgers, who in many cases can’t afford to pay @glasgowgreens.bsky.social secured a free public transport pilot. Don’t criminalise poverty.

Can we get a cheer for the damn what lethal face card I’ve recently decided to have‼️ My new (and final) official portrait as I come towards the end of my term as Vice-President Student Support at Glasgow Uni. It has truly been an honour to be the first trans executive in our 574 years 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏾

BDS means BDS. The State of the Israel uses Eurovision as yet another channel for propaganda to normalise its genocide. So no I won’t be watching Genocide: the song contest, and neither should you. ✊🏾 Me for the @scotnational.bsky.social 🇵🇸

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 12/05/2025

Less than 2 hours from Starmer’s speech. The government has just announced they will be ignoring Article 8 (the right to family life) and tearing communities apart. One of Glasgow Labour’s MSPs thinks he can mock us, talking about the importance of community . Our lives are a joke to them.

When my great grandparents joined the Windrush generation they were not ‘strangers’. They were coming to re-build the homeland, my Nana as a nurse, my Pop as a builder. We were never strangers in our own country. Disgusting racism from the heart of government. We are no lesser than.

Iris Duane MSP 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @irisduane.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

Last week I opened the No Pride in Genocide rally demanding Glasgow Pride Divest from genocidal companies. Our community will not be splattered in blood, we will not be made complicit in genocide and colonialism 🤢 Shame on Glasgow Pride.

Today it’s been 80 years since VE Day, the day we accepted the surrender of Nazi Germany but the far right is here, and it’s not going away. The Green Party MUST be the party of patriots, or we may lose everything. My piece for Green left Scotland. open.substack.com/pub/greenlefts…
