Are MPs’ pension funds investing in an unsustainable future? Read the joint op-ed by Luthando Vilakazi from Open Secrets & David Le Page from Fossil Free South Africa discussing why we need to know whether our MPs are banking on fossil fuel companies to fund their retirement

MPs’ pension fund must come clean about investments in fossil fuel firms
South Africans have a right to know whether our MPs are investing in companies that are actively destroying our chances of a sustainable future.

“SA’s world-beating wealth concentration makes it vulnerable to the whims of a small number of individuals and corporate actors. South Africans must demand universal public services, greater transparency in political financing, and robust antitrust enforcement.” Koketso Moeti

South Africa’s Elites Are Jeopardizing Its Democracy
Koketso Moeti thinks more must be done to improve public services, keep money out of politics, and prevent corporate greed.
