flag Kemi Badenoch declares UK oil and gas emergency, urging end to drilling ban and tax on fossil fuels amid energy and climate debate.

flag Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has declared an "oil and gas emergency" in the UK, blaming Labour’s energy policies for threatening energy security and raising bills. flag She demands ending the moratorium on new North Sea drilling and repealing the Energy Profits Levy, warning production could halve by 2030. flag Labour and environmental groups reject the push, calling it a return to failed policies that risk climate goals and benefit fossil fuel companies. flag Industry groups support increased production, citing job losses and declining output, while the government confirmed a £5bn debt deal for the Sizewell C nuclear project, underscoring continued investment in low-carbon energy.
