Labour — Inverclyde and Renfrewshire West

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 September 2026

Debate

Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline

Contribution

I was not expecting to have an ideological debate on a Tuesday afternoon. I have said, and I repeat again, that we are using the resources from North sea oil and gas and we will continue to use them for decades to come. But if the Conservative party wants to put all its eggs in one basket and reject the renewables generation that is coming from this country right now, that is a road to nowhere. This is about energy security and national security.
