Absolutely love Fatih Birol's dry delivery of obvious messages on the impact of #Trump's campaign on #Hormuz and #oilprices, but he doesn't stop there. Last line a killer for all #UK #drilling wannabes: opening your 2 or 3 fields (here's to you #Rosebank #Jackdaw) will have ZERO impact on #oilprice & UK consumers will pay exactly the same at the pump. If there was ever an argument to shut #Reform & #Farage up & accelerate #energytransition.

Not only would the development of the Rosebank oil field in the North Sea be a climate disaster, one of its principal developers is owned by Israeli oil company, Delek, which fuels the occupation forces, profits from illegal West Bank colonialism and funds genocide

Tell the #uk government not to grant a licence to develop #Rosebank

From a Surrey oil well to the supreme court: how @sarahfinch.bsky.social changed UK climate law.

"On a sunny morning in June 2024, almost five years after Finch began her legal challenge, the decision came. The climate impact of burning coal, oil and gas must be taken into account when deciding whether to approve projects, wherever that burning takes place, the court ruled.

It was a small change in interpretation of the Town and Country Planning Act, but the effect was momentous. Permission for the Cumbria coalmine was quashed by the high court. The government spent a year rewriting guidance for the offshore oil and gas industry, pulling support from #Jackdaw and #Rosebank, which were then ruled unlawful.

The Finch ruling has been one of the most groundbreaking environmental cases of the century. But it is already under threat."

No Oil Profits for Occupation and #Genocide

Sign the petition to let the government know that we’ve buried Cambo once, and we’ll do it again

#Cambo and #Rosebank would send profits to one of Israel’s biggest #oil companies which operates in illegal settlements in the #OccupiedWestBank and supplies fuel to the Israeli military

"Senior figures in the North Sea industry expect the fields to be given the go-ahead within the coming weeks, and claim they could begin producing fossil fuels by the end of the year. This outcome would be likely to provoke an outcry from green groups which have campaigned against the fields for years.

One industry source suggested that the go-ahead may come after the upcoming local elections in May, to avoid creating a dividing line between Labour and the Green party which has become increasingly popular among leftwing voters."
