The IEA’s Chief Operating Officer and Energy Analyst, Andy Mayer has been quoted in the Daily Express responding to Keir Starmer’s plan to ban North Sea oil and ags development.
Andy said:
“Last year, the opposition wanted to supertax the North Sea to reduce the cost of living.
“Despite Net Zero plans, we will need fossil fuels for the next 20-30 years. With the global energy market increasingly plagued by uncertainty, politicians’ hostility towards using the resources beneath our own waters is all the more perplexing.
“With this policy, Keir Starmer might as well jump in an Aberdeen taxi and hand out the dole notices.”
