“This Government Is BARMY!" | Ed Miliband Wants To Ban North Sea Oil And Gas Licences

Описание к видео “This Government Is BARMY!" | Ed Miliband Wants To Ban North Sea Oil And Gas Licences

Ed Miliband’s plan to ban new North Sea oil and gas licences could cost thousands of energy jobs, turning workers into the “miners of net zero,” warns the Unite union.

The union, fearing 200,000 jobs could be at risk, compared the impact to the devastating pit closures of the 1980s and 1990s.

Unite argues that fossil fuels shouldn’t be abandoned until job protections are in place, and calls for no ban on new drilling licences until all North Sea workers' jobs are guaranteed.

Labour's manifesto pledges to stop new oil and gas projects without approval.

Alex Phillips speaks with geopolitical analyst, Dr Roger Gewolb.
