Douglas Lumsden: “The SNP have a brass neck after betraying the Acorn project by only releasing £5m of the promised £80m they pledged more…”

The destruction of the North Sea oil and gas industry must stop now.

Rather than trying to play pathetic political games, the SNP should finally deliver the £80m to bring this vital project forward in unlocking the potential to support 21,000 jobs.

While we still have a need for oil and gas, it’s much better that we produce it in this country, because it’s much better for our economy and also our jobs.

This result sends a clear message to Labour and the SNP: their war on North Sea oil and gas must end.
