Labour would reportedly ban new oil and gas developments in the North Sea if Keir Starmer becomes the next Prime Minister
Labour will reportedly ban new oil and gas developments in the North Sea if Keir Starmer becomes the next Prime Minister.
A Labour source told the Sunday Times: “We are against the granting of new licences for oil and gas in the North Sea.“They undermine our energy security and would drive a coach and horse through our climate targets. In its draft energy strategy published in January, the Scottish Government said there “should be a presumption against new exploration for oil and gas”, as it proposed making the “fastest possible just transition”.
