## Resource

Lorenzo Martinico just made history as the first-ever Scottish Green councillor in Edinburgh, winning a by-election in Portobello and Craigmillar with 1,781 votes — a major breakthrough in a ward once dominated by the SNP. His victory, alongside another Green councillor in the area, signals a powerful shift toward community-driven politics focused on tackling housing, climate, and transport together. With wins in both Parliament and local elections this year, the Greens are gaining serious momentum ahead of May’s council elections — where they could potentially lead the city for the first time. This isn’t just political change; it’s a vote for a greener, fairer, more hopeful future for Edinburgh. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
