[Rt Hon Sir Grant Shapps @grantshapps]

Following Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, it was sensible to assess UK’s energy security.

However, local communities come first & having further considered the science we stand by our 2019 manifesto on a fracking moratorium. My statement to Commons below 👇

Joy! Though we'll only celebrate it when they actually tidy the mess and get the hell out of here [..we have remained outraged at the travesty that has been forced upon us. “From Lancashire to Cuadrilla: goodbye and good riddance.”]

@Jacob_Rees_Mogg Are you STILL going on about that? Change the record!

Remember when oil & gas industry said Wytch Farm a wonderful example of why #Fracking would be safe.. we argued it was only conventional extraction; unconventional far worse. Poole Harbour: Marine Conservation Area, Site of Special Scientific Interest & Special Protection Area +]

[Frack Free East Yorkshire @FrackFreeEY]

What were you saying? Something about Wytch Farm, Fracking and safe?

[John Dodders @Dodders75]

Correct. 110,000 barrels of oil per day peak production from 5 well pads, with over 100 deviated wells: Wytch Farm oil field in Poole Harbour.

[Lance Dyer 〓〓 @Lance63]

Calls for answers over Poole harbour oil spill as cleanup continues.
The leak occurred at Perenco’s Wytch Farm oilfield and processing facility, which has been in operation since 1979 and produces 14,000 barrels of oil a day.

[David Burley @David1Burley]

Fracking for gas can be safe they said. Don't worry about fossil fuel extraction near to housing they said. Look at the oil extraction near Poole in Dorset they said. It's 100% safe they said.

Beliefs about the seriousness of climate change appear to be influencing attitudes against UK shale gas extraction, despite the war in Ukraine, a new study has concluded.

[Steve Mason @stevemason2111]

What's the reason? Where do the connections lie? Where does the lobbying pay off? Or not...

‘#Fracking’ and '#nuclear' pushed by right wing newspapers in 2022

Proportionally ‘#renewables’ hardly discussed.

[Natalie Bennett @natalieben]

"Previous governments covered up the fact that gas extraction was causing earthquakes."

Yet some in the UK are still talking about resuming attempts at #fracking

NEW analysis shows the scale of fracking lobbying by the UK press...

Numbers of pro-fracking editorials in right-wing papers surged to record highs in 2022.

The Sun printed more than half of them: an incredible 💥32 editorials💥 pushing for fracking

@Leebee2nd Because we're 280 million years too late here. Plus we live in a densely populated country there's not enough space for it to not effect population you need thousands of wells and its too expensive to extract.
