00:00The Prime Minister has spoken a lot about the increase in the cost of living and much
00:04of that is driven by the increase in the energy prices because of the rush towards net stupid
00:10zero and the multiple increase in renewables such as solar farms on our productive agricultural
00:16farmland.
00:17It is madness to import gas from overseas when we have got our own gas in the North
00:22Sea.
00:23So when will the Prime Minister do the right thing, approve the licences at Rosebank and
00:27Jackdaw and elsewhere in the North Sea?
00:33Mr Speaker, I don't know if the Honourable Gentleman was listening a moment ago when
00:38I was talking about how renewables can bring down the cost of living and I gave a very
00:44clear example in Greater Manchester.
00:47It costs £30 to charge a bus with electric charge, £200 to fill a tank of diesel.
00:54He really does need to look into the facts a little bit more before he makes statements
00:58like that in this House.
01:00Solar panels on people's homes can bring down the cost of their energy.
01:05And yes, Mr Speaker, we need to be pragmatic.
01:08We will still need to rely on oil and gas for some years to come.
01:12The mistake he is making is saying it's got to be one or the other for political purposes.
01:17The truth is it's going to have to be both.
01:19The truth is it's going to be both.
01:19The truth is it's going to be both.
01:19There sounds like we're going to have to be over.
01:19Hepmontia 말씀.
