Graham Stuart

Conservative — Beverley and Holderness

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 May 2025

Debate

UK-EU Summit

Contribution

We need 15 billion barrels of oil and gas between now and 2050; we are currently expected to produce just 4 billion. New licences would support tens of thousands of jobs in this country and tens of billions in tax revenue. Will the Prime Minister assure the House that the agreement on alignment on climate policies will not stand in the way of common-sense restoration of new licences in the North sea, so that we can produce the oil and gas we must consume in this country?
