If @scotgov gets it's #PrivateJetTax right, it could raise millions for services we desperately need.

The money raised from this tax should be spent on tackling both climate change and poverty, like the emergency insulation programme we’ve recommended 👀

Many people can’t afford to heat or insulate their homes, but the super rich still criss-cross the globe in #privatejets 💰

Scotland needs to stand up for its people and tax this hugely polluting frivolity properly and soon.

Data centres for AI could more than double Scotland's electricity use.

If it’s really Scotland’s Energy, why let big tech use so much of the renewables we need for our homes, our transport, our industry?

We still need a moratorium on hyperscale #datacentres.

If it's Scotland's Energy, prove it!

The people should feel the benefit of Scotland's renewables wealth.

The ScotWind wealth fund should seed fund #communityownership of energy, land, community hubs, pubs and other assets.
