Asking the Energy Security Minister about fully utilising our natural resources
I’ve always believed that as a country, we should fully utilise our natural resources. I also believe that we should take a pragmatic route to the transition to green energy and cutting our carbon emissions.
Realistically, this will mean using a certain amount of natural gas and oil over the short term. If we’re going to use it, it may as well be British natural gas and oil. This is good for jobs and investment in the UK, good for energy security, good for lower energy costs and as you’ll see from the Minister’s response to my question, good for our carbon footprint. It is worse for the environment for us to import these natural resources from abroad.
