I enjoyed the @FoEScot hustings this evening. I stood my ground on the importance of oil and gas to Aberdeen, my support for a genuine energy mix - renewables, oil & gas and new nuclear. I also expressed my support for Aberdeen’s green spaces, restoring home economics in schools.

"It is frankly delusional for ministers to think that carbon capture technology, which has no working plant, no planning application and now without its key backer, can deliver the level of emissions cuts required in Scotland within a decade" - @FoEScot morningstaronline.co.uk/article/close-…

Carbon capture projects have a long history of failure, often before construction, meaning that the much-needed jobs promised never materialise. Decision-makers must reject this proposal and sit down with workers to plan a route to secure renewables jobs instead.
