⁉️What is the PM talking about? His Budget just kept the Energy Profits Levy -the windfall tax - until 2030! This is complete incompetence. 👉There is no windfall. 👉But Oil & Gas companies are still paying windfall taxes. 👉By the PM’s own logic the EPL must be scrapped. Now.

Nothing any Government gives away is “free”. No “free” breakfast clubs, no “free” healthcare. In Scotland, no “free” tuition fees or “free” prescriptions. It’s all taxpayer funded. Taxpayers pay, whether they like it or not, for all the“free” stuff. Not the Government.

🇬🇧 🥀 Labour think banning new oil & gas will make the UK more “energy independent”. 🇳🇴 Norway think drilling their oil & gas will make them more “energy independent”. I know who I think is right.

Oil & gas, steel, refining, agriculture - all on a watchlist after the Government voted through the 7th Carbon Budget. Labour’s plans mean we will import more, produce less and be poorer for it - all in the hope that others will copy us. 🤷‍♀️They think "climate leadership" is reducing our DOMESTIC emissions…while importing the same products with the same or more emissions from overseas.

The Government had a choice today - ☑️To vote for North Sea oil & gas sector, its jobs, skills investment, tax and domestic supply… Or… ❌To vote for more foreign imports. 🥀 They chose imports.

Ed Miliband says thinking gas prices will fall is a "big gamble". 🎲I'd take that bet. Very happily. Gas prices will rise. And they will fall. What won't fall is the sky high offshore wind price (higher than the current gas power price) Ed has signed us all up to for 20 years.

China is a threat. So we’d expect the Energy Secretary to have discussed his energy deal with China with the Security Minister before it was signed. The deal effectively gives China access to our energy grid. Doesn’t sound like he did. Ed really was trying to keep it secret.

So a year from now – almost 2.5 years after Labour’s general election win, when they promised GB Energy would be the answer to #OilAndGas job losses in Aberdeen / North East, we can look forward to… just 100 GB Energy jobs. We are losing that weekly from the oil & gas sector.

Saying we must "stop drilling North Sea oil & gas to tackle climate change" is just wrong. Everyone knows we need oil & gas. ✖️We can either pay billions to import more & more - at a higher carbon intensity... ✔️Or use our own - benefitting UK jobs, economy & energy security.

The Government could approve Jackdaw and Rosebank today. They could choose to support the UK’s oil & gas sector, its workers and energy supplies today. It’s their choice. 🥀 They’re choosing not to.

Cute cutting Jeevan!😘 But here's our actual exchange. 👉Its NOT an either-or when it comes to oil & gas or other energies.👈 The skilled workforce, supply chain expertise and investment from North Sea oil & gas companies are vital for successfully growing all types of energy.

The Government know we need oil & gas. They just don’t want to use OUR oil & gas. 👉 End the ban on new licences. Now. 👉 Scrap the EPL. Now. 👉 Permit Rosebank & Jackdaw. Now.

Since imposing the Family Farm and Family Business Tax, the Government have told farmers & business owners to "get their affairs in order". What they meant was to rely on the 7-year rule for Inheritance Tax transfers. 🥀Now we hear reports they are to remove this lifeline. 1/2

If Andy Burnham is the answer, what is the question? We don't know where he stands on defence, on foreign policy, on energy, on farming... He has the same Labour Party, same back benchers, same manifesto - all of which have been shown as badly wanting over the last 2 years.

Conservatives voted to stop Labour’s ban on new licences, end the EPL and permit Rosebank and Jackdaw. 👉Labour voted against 👉SNP didn’t vote 👉Only 1 Reform MP turned up The Aberdeen South by-election is a referendum on oil & gas. It’s clear which party is fighting for it.

Not sure which is worse - The Scotland Secretary not willing to welcome the £ billions of investment or the thousands of jobs the Rosebank oilfield would bring. or... Him twice referring to the Energy Secretary as the Climate Secretary. 🥀Says a lot about Labour’s priorities.

❓Kicking off the new year with- what should be - an easy question to the Energy Minister. Interesting answer...given I asked about #oilandgas prices and didn't mention the Energy Profits Levy! How can the Energy Minister not know the price of energy? Not even ballpark figures?

The choice in the Aberdeen South by-election is clear… 👍 The pro-UK, pro-oil and gas Scottish Conservatives candidate Douglas Lumsden. 👎 Or the anti-everything SNP.

🥀 This makes no sense: The Government have, themselves, defined an #oilandgas windfall. By their own definition, there are no windfall profits. Nor have there been for a number of years. Yet… they are keeping the Energy Profits Levy (the windfall tax) for another 4 years?🤷‍♀️

So many people have had a part in the Family Farm Tax (partial) u-turn. I worked with farmers for years before politics & know one thing for sure- they NEVER give up! Hopefully Labour are learning that too. Today is a relief to many farms, but not all. We need a full scrapping.
