Fantastic to share the platform with the indefatigable @Feargal_Sharkey at our #UNDC24 #Climate fringe today. A brilliant speaker and a true champion for holding the water companies to account for cleaner waters. @unisontheunion

It’s a rest day for #COP28! but not for us as it’s our Trade Union strategy day where we are reviewing week 1 and planning for week 2. It’s great to bring an @unisontheunion presence to these vitally important discussions. #Unions4JustTransition @ituc @UNISONLibby

Without international justice there will not be a #JustTransition and no support for ambitious climate policies. Delegates: Stop Playing Strategic Games between N and S. Deliver on the Just Transition Work Program! @rhodaboateng @ituc_africa @ituc #Unions4JustTransition #COP28
