Listen to the people - not just big tech!

The data centre boom is happening so rapidly, the full scale of its impacts on people, nature and climate are not
yet known.

Email the First Minister now and demand people have their say on AI data centres!

Kinross needs better buses! Join the local meeting 📣

Sick of service cuts, rising fares, and being cut off? Bus companies are making millions running our lifeline services into the ground.

Exactly 40 years since Thatcher sold off our buses - it’s time to bring them back into public hands. Local Councils have the power to change things, but it is up to you to win that change.

Get involved in your local campaign to win a bus service that works for our community, not commercial interests.

In this meeting we will be deciding our goals and creating a strategy to win real change in our community. Training will be provided.

No experience needed, all welcome. Bring a friend or a neighbour!

When asked by an MSP about the 20 AI data centres planned in Scotland a UK Government represented revealed that “There are closer to 30 in Scotland at the moment”.

Unlike wind farms and other developments, data centres don’t have to register their plans to connect to the grid.

This needs to change so that people know exactly where and when these plans are being made.
