“I want zero illegal migrants." “You do not speak for the British people." Sir Jacob Rees Mogg, Conservative peer, and Rachel Blake, Labour MP, clash over their views about small boat crossings.  #Newsnight

I am sorry but this is plain wrong. The goal is to reach net zero emissions globally. Extracting every last bit of oil and gas from the North Sea is not consistent with that goal. Why can’t @Conservatives be straight with the public on energy and climate?
Harriet Cross MP@HarrietCross_MP

To those using a climate change argument as a reason to close down North Sea oil & gas... 👉Supporting the UK's oil & gas sector and wanting to reduce carbon emissions is not incompatible. In fact, it is essential. Explained ⤵️⤵️

@AdrianRamsay Most of licences haven’t been drilled yet, Adam. Let’s focus on getting CO2 emissions down. First step, replace high-CO2 imported LNG with low CO2 gas from the North Sea. I’m sure you agree this is obvious.

Last time in Gov, you handed out hundreds of North Sea licences at huge cost and environmental damage, for just 36 days of gas. The idea that giving big oil a blank cheque to drill in the North Sea will lower energy bills is laughable.

There are a lot of right-wingers that seem to be disagreeing with my post. Maybe they should do their own research, produce some evidence or maybe read this. theguardian.com/business/2026/…
Sue Wilson@Suewilson91

Stupid, stupid woman. Around 93% of UK oil & gas reserves has already been extracted. It takes 5 years to create a new North Sea oil/gas field. (She won't last that long). The UK doesn't set the prices, so it wouldn't make electricity any cheaper.

This Tory MP’s Party privatised North Sea oil & gas in the 1980s & spent the money halving Income Tax for the rich. Norway, however, used publicly-owned Statoil to build the world’s largest Sovereign Wealth Fund. Tories plundered our birthright & are trying to re-write history.

How is Norway able to fund such a Defence budget when we aren’t? One factor is they’re still drilling in the North Sea - we buy their fossil fuels from the same basin we deny ourselves the economic benefit from. Madness.

@KathrynPorter26 @jonburkeUK Oh yes they did Britoil set up on 1975 but Thatcher sold it on the stock market in 1982. Eventually bought by BP in 1985. Also the BNOC set up to trade oil but the Conservatives hamstrung it financially and traded away

@KathrynPorter26 @vicsinghb @jonburkeUK Unusually, you’re wrong. BNOC was the nationalised O&G company, but was tiny with only 6% of Notth Sea production (“thatcher sold the n sea” loons also cite BP, but BP didn’t produce in the N Sea when the government still had shares). BNOC was privatised as Britoil, bought by BP.

@jonburkeUK No, they didn't... The state never had an oil and gas production company the way it did with electricity generation But Labour was in office for over a decade... They could have nationalised it

@DavidMcGregorBN You are aware that taxes are a cost, right? And that taxes pay for all this? So there’s zero net gain? In fact, a loss, given the notorious inefficiency of the civil service.

Hi @BBCWorld - just checking in as you seemed to have not get my message about the largest ever march against the far right the UK has seen 👇
Harry Eccles@Heccles94

Hey @BBCNews - you seem not to have noticed the 500,000 people marching through London against the far-right, so I’m just making you aware, cheers then.

Wrong call Lewis Goodall.. you’re totally out of touch with people’s views on Keir Starmer. People like and respect him. Your timing was awful. Should have been named “Rise and Rise of” - up 25 points. Shockingly bad judgement by you. @TheNewsAgents

Ed Miliband gets relentless bile from the right for his ‘ideological’ commitment to clean, cheap renewable energy - just as Nye Bevan once did for creating the NHS. Yet on March 25 97.7 % of our electricity was from renewables. A revolution is unfolding. observer.co.uk/news/columnist…

Hundreds of North Sea licences granted by UK Tory Govt between 2010 and 2024 produced only 36 days of gas. Tories, Reform selling fantasy of endless gas reserves. Energy security needs more investment in renewables, nuclear, better insulated homes. theguardian.com/business/2026/…

It's amazing how the Green party leadership, a woman, a gay Jew and a Muslim, manages to be accused of islamaphobia, antisemitism and misogyny all at the same time. Perhaps this is just the media and establishment having a breakdown because they know the Greens are gonna tax the rich?

@DaleVince Dale, that analysis is bollocks. Most of those licenses haven’t been drilled yet. Estimates for remaining hydrocarbons in the UKCS go as high as 14bn mboe. That’s a lot.

I’ve been saying two things in response to the fossil fools calling for more drilling in the North Sea - both are cutting through. First is we don't set the price of our own North Sea oil and gas, second is we have very little left, around 10%. More drilling can't help us with this energy (price) crisis and the idea of some kind of oil self sufficiency for Britain is a fantasy. Now comes this revelation - the hundreds of licences the Tories issued, over a 14 year period, in pursuit of this fantasy - resulted in just one months worth of gas being produced. The reality is starkly different to the fantasy Farage and Badenoch would have us believe. theguardian.com/business/2026/…

@nw_nicholas You can’t expect the BBC to cover every minor event. There were only 50,000 there. There were bigger crowds at sporting events that day.

My mother is 92. She's not on social media. I told her I was going to London on Saturday for a march. She relies on the BBC for her news. She wouldn't have seen it.
