The approval of Jackdaw will not lower our household energy bills, nor will it make us more resilient in the face of climate breakdown.
It will however, further damage trust in democracy, as ‘no new oil and gas' was promised just 2 years ago.
If the Government approve Rosebank too, this will only signal an end to the ambition for a green transition.
I cannot support this.

Approving the drilling of Jackdaw is the wrong decision on every front.
It won't bring down bills, it creates barely any jobs, and it undermines our climate commitments.
True energy security comes from rapidly expanding homegrown renewables, not continuing our reliance on volatile fossil fuels. The idea that we need more drilling to fund them is exactly what the fossil fuel lobby wants us to believe.

An absolutely terrible decision on Jackdaw.
It will do nothing to lower people's energy bills or improve our energy security.
Investing in renewable energy is the way to do that.
The Government has got this badly wrong. It must not repeat the same mistake with Rosebank.
Jackdaw WON'T:
- Have any meaningful impact on UK energy security
- Bring down our energy bills
- Stop the decline in the North Sea jobs
New oil and gas fields are simply not compatible with safe climate limits. Labour MUST reject Rosebank
BREAKING 🚨: The UK Government has just approved the Jackdaw gas field
We cannot let them open Rosebank

Official data has revealed that between July 2025 and July 2026, Department for Energy Security & Net Zero ministers met almost five times more often with fossil fuel giants Shell and BP than with fuel poverty groups and charities.
Over the course of the year, ministers met with Shell and BP 23 times, while fuel poverty campaigners were offered just 5 meetings. (1/2)
REMINDER: More drilling makes next to no difference to our energy security.
Rosebank's oil will overwhelming be exported and sold to the highest bidder. Approving this huge field would just keep us hooked on volatile oil and gas for far longer than necessary.
Translation: Big oil CEO threatens to throw his toys out of the pram if he doesn't get what he wants.
Andy Burnham must ignore the bullying of profiteering oil firms, and put ordinary people first.

Delek Group, an Israeli energy giant known to operate in illegal settlements in the West Bank, is set to receive £200+ million if Rosebank is approved.
So we've sent a letter to Burnham - warning him that approving Rosebank could breach his new sanctions.

"Droughts, wildfires, all across South Wales. We need to go hard on the green transition" 💯
- @CatherineFookes @UKLabour MP for Monmouthshire
REMINDER: The world already has far more oil and gas than can ever be safely burned if we are to limit warming.
More North Sea drilling will do nothing to cut our energy bills, and make no meaningful difference to UK energy supply - but it will escalate climate harm.
