Conservative — Bridgwater

Speaking in the House of Commons on 18 November 2025

Debate

ExxonMobil: Mossmorran

Contribution

The closure of the ExxonMobil plant is bad news for the whole of the UK economy, and it is the direct result of Labour’s economic and energy policies. Does the Minister accept that by pushing up taxes and energy prices, his Government are making the UK an uncompetitive environment for energy-intensive industries? What policy changes will he make to ensure that this is not the first of many such closures?
