They are on the wrong side – not just of economics, but they’re on the wrong side of history on this.
When we have tax revenues that are coming from the oil and gas industry, it is right that we invest that in the transition we need to make in energy.
Gas from Jackdaw will be in our homes and businesses this month but it won't lower our energy bills this winter.
