What's The Point Of COP?
The UN鈥檚 annual climate conference kicks off in Brazil.
Today, Adam is joined by the 麻豆社鈥檚 climate editor Justin Rowlatt, and Daniela Relph senior royal correspondent, to discuss Keir Starmer and Prince William鈥檚 speeches at COP30.
The Prince and the Prime Minister gave speeches that were slightly at odds with each other as Prince William called upon 鈥渢he power of urgent optimism鈥 whilst the PM warned that the 鈥渃onsensus is gone鈥 on climate change.
Plus Adam is joined by Alex who鈥檚 been deep diving into Reform led local councils and what their first six months of governance can tell us about what a Reform led UK government could look like.
