Sadly, it won’t be enough to elect a Scottish Green MEP this time around. However, we are delighted to see our sister parties in England and Wales increase their number of MEPs from 3 to 7. Across Europe, from Ireland eastwards the Greens are making marked advances and will form the largest ever Green group in the European Parliament – tackling climate change, challenging bigotry and offering hope.
Here in Edinburgh we are proud that our capital city voted overwhelmingly for parties with a clear remain message: for every clear leave voter, there were seven clear remain voters.
Thanks so much to all our supporters. Work with us to make the future Green!
