Andrew Bowie

Conservative — West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 June 2026

Debate

Oil and Gas Sector: Employment

Contribution

The list grows longer every week: BP, Hunting, Harbour, Chevron, Well-Safe, Petrofac, Ithaca, Xodus and EnerMech have all announced redundancies in Scotland’s oil and gas industry. For some unfathomable reason, this Labour Government seem to think that everything is fine, but is it not the truth that they are carrying out the wilful destruction of this country’s domestic oil and gas industry, sacrificing thousands of jobs and making the country poorer and less secure?
