Patrick Harvie: “I ask you to urgently give a clear commitment that a full public consultation will take place as part of the development…”

It is an affront to democracy to continue to deny Scotland’s right to decide our own future.

We are one year on from Parliament’s historic vote, and the Scottish Government has failed to turn words into action.

But we cannot stop here. People across Scotland should not have to pay more for their bus simply because of where they live.
