This has been a frustrating 2 weeks but with moments of real hope. The hope comes from an increasingly angry and connected movement which will no longer let big business and political leaders burn our world for their own self interest.
The fight continues.

5/ Climate change was created by the rich. Most of the world can’t and shouldn’t pay the price to solve this problem. We need finance. Yet rich countries like the UK are cutting budgets, leaving us without a solution.

We need an alternative. That’s why we’ve been campaigning for an FFT. We can no longer by held to ransom by petro-states like Saudi or the global north refusing to engage in a real just transition. But hope here:

4/ BUT This COP failed to chart a path away from fossil fuels. This is scandalous. Seems Europe has done a deal with the petro-states. We don’t commit to finance, they don’t commit to fossil fuel phase out. Criminals. Never forget.

3/ The transformation must include radical changes to a trade system which protects fossil fuel interests. It’s good that is on the agenda. We will fight to make the world ISDS-free and ditch a system in which the victims compensate the climate criminals

2/ Movements demanded a just transition mechanism and we made progress. A massive achievement in the face of European obstruction. We can’t fight climate change without an economic transformation.

Thoughts on #COP30 🧵
1/ This is the first time in years delegates have been brought face to face with those on the frontline. The indigenous communities are the heroes of this COP. They refused to be silenced.

As the Christmas season draws near, let’s reflect on Jesus’s words in Matthew 11:28.
We remember that God is a refuge for the weary—& invites us to join in His work of bringing peace & comfort. Around the world, families seeking safety carry heavy burdens of fear & uncertainty🙏

Last year, my father, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, was serving patients at Kamal Adwan Hospital. But this year, on his birthday, my father is being held hostage by the military occupation.
It has been 329 days since my father was taken.
How long will our father remain away from us?
Please don’t forget my father. 🙏

🚨Sir Ian McKellen is quoting Thomas More, writing in 1517 during anti-immigrant riots in London 🔥 when terrified foreigners were dragged from their homes and blamed for every social ill.
More asked the mob a simple question:
“What would you do, if you were the stranger?”
500 years later, those same words cut straight through the noise.
Because today we are again stirring hatred, again blaming the vulnerable, again pretending cruelty is “strength”.
If the great humanists of the 16th century could see the danger…
why can’t our politicians in 2025?
History is speaking louder than ever.
The only question is: are we listening?

More than 300 big agriculture lobbyists have taken part in #Cop30, investigation finds. The number of lobbyists representing the interests of industrial cattle farming, commodity grains and pesticides is up 14% on last year’s summit in Baku.

"As someone who has spent years campaigning for climate action, I know how vital it is that our financial systems support a liveable future."
Brilliant to see @roz_savage MP supporting @TheFinanceLab's Pension Schemes Bill amendment to enable fossil fuel investment phase-out 💚
