Rishi Sunak has insisted his announcement of hundreds of new North Sea oil and gas licences is “entirely consistent with our plan to get to net zero”.
The Prime Minister said domestic oil and gas saves “two, three, four times the amount of carbon emissions” than “shipping it from halfway around the world”.

About The Author
This from the committed Brexit Plank who endorses Johnson's catastrophic Brexit Trade giveaway to Australasia, that not only sees an end to UK farming production as know it, but involves dragging more food from the furthest possible point on the planet, when we have abundant food on our doorstep.
Oh he lies. Vote him out.
Didn’t JSO hold a little party last week to celebrate how well they were doing? 🥳
Don't believe or trust a word sunak says he only pandering too his tory donors.
This pathetic man is effing unbelievable.
Brillaint news. Lets all laugh at Just Stop Oil..
sounds sensible for a change
Why can't he just talk normally to people instead of over anunciating his words and also excessively jerking his body as he delivers his scripts
should be net 0 if phishing with out licence 👍
carbon capture is tricky business when on bicycle 😁
Oil gas taken back for the uk people. Enough is Enough
🇬🇧🔚🏴
Rishi🤔🤔🤔 our weather comes from somewhere else dude. 🤔
Fracking would be in the countries interest. Time we ignored the climate scientists who are being funded by globalists with sinister ideas. Bloody hell carbon dioxide at .▪︎04 % is nearly the lowest it has ever been. I have been told that under ▪︎037% plants start to die. Let the co2 go it is not harmful it is in a too small amount to affect the climate. Why has the southern hemisphere been recording the coolest temperatures in years culminating in the coldest ever winyer since records began at the South Pole.According to NASA the southern ice sheet is at it's largest ever seen by man from space.
Carbon capture is a scam. The Us and Australia have been doing it for years. It does almost nothing other than act as a smoke screen for the fossil fuel industry. What little co2 that is actually extracted from the air is offset by the co2 produced by the energy plants used to power the extractors. Beyond this the fossil fuel industry is turning around and using the
Co2. That has been extracted from the air to inject into wells to extract more oil and gas.. So a good deal of the time the whole operation actually produce more Co2. Than it's actually extracting from he air.
But that's not going to lower anyone's gas or electricity bills
Carbon capture? Hahahaha, tell us another story. These politicians think we're all stupid. That's how Trump exists, because a lot of people ARE!!
Newsnight just explained that energy imported from Norway is relatively clean.
More bullssh1t from the Tories.
Sadly, not convinced by the Labour Sales Lady on same program. Hope I’m wrong.
Definition of greed. Stop running our country and let some younger people take over, clearly doesn’t understand what the younger generation wants.
Fracking Next maybe Rishi Sunak? Beginning to look like an attempt to cover up and win his first General Election?
Seems sensible. We have a need of oil amd gas as a country. Eventually we can use our own if needed…
This is crazy
Drilling let's the earth breath.
Nothing to do with his family signing billion dollar contract with major oil company.
Didn’t his father in law just sign a multibillion pound deal with BP before Rish gave out the liscences.
A scripted spin comprising lies, lies and more lies! Utter BS. There is no effective carbon capture working anywhere in the world, what there is uses insane amounts of energy. 80% of NS oil is exported, not consumed in the UK, so an increase in production = an increase in export. This is just INSANITY, these corporate mouthpieces are going to doom us all.
OK, so Johnson is no longer Britain's Biggest Liar.
Why not start Fracking too?
Net zero is the stupidest thing ever 🤣
What an utter clown, the planet is literally on fire and this muppet is still lining his families pockets. His father in laws company signed a 1.5£ billion deal with BP shortly after this announcement. Sickening!
