Start Drilling for Oil in the North Sea. The UK needs to be independent.
During the current Middle East Crisis it has become apparent that the UK Goverment should reverse the decision to stop drilling for oil in the North Sea.
Meaning Britain should drill and expand the Oilfields that are located offshore.
Doing this makes Britain less reliant on imported Oil and Gas.
The Goverment should clearly review and take stock of how exposed the current oil crisis has left the country in.
Reverse the decision and allow drilling to begin.
Net Zero at the present time is not the priorities national security is.
