And after years of false starts and empty promises, what makes you think the people will believe you this time? Arrogance, greed and ineptitude has blinkered the ANC - African National Congress from their demise.

As a party that cares deeply for our country and its people, it angers us to see how the ANC has used state resources to line its pockets instead of delivering much-needed services and upliftment to the people. da.org.za/2025/10/da-lau…

I’m at COP30 in Belém! Registered and in the expo area. I’ll do some more tweets of little factoids as I go for interest and as a bit of a diary. #cop30 #unfccc #belem

In August 2024 the Republic of Korea’s Constitutional Court ruled that their climate neutrality legislation was unconstitutional because it didn’t set clear goals for mitigation for 2030. Great example of how legislation can be used to turn justice into climate action. #cop30

The opening ceremony for week 2 of #COP30 features statements from countries and regions. So far, the main themes emerging are urgency, fair share, and importance of indigenous communities. #climatechange #belem #unfccc

Just Transitions are a big focus at COP30. I attended an interesting tripartite discussion between labour, employers and govt. I enjoyed Juan Carlos Losada #L22’s comments on plastic legislation and how Colombia dealt with different interests to ensure inclusive progress. #cop30 #unfccc

More lessons on just transitions and climate adaptation - solutions must be localized. Local context is important, and local communities must have buy-in, equity, and solution-building participation. #cop30 #unfccc #climatechange #justtransition
