Drilling at Jackdaw

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 21 October 2026

That this House notes that the UK Government’s decision to license new drilling at the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea is at odds with their 2024 manifesto commitment not to issue licences to explore new fields because they will not take a penny off bills and cannot make us energy secure; believes that this decision ignores the climate science consensus and the UN’s warning that immediate and sustained cuts to greenhouse gas emissions are crucial to avoid the worst impacts of climate breakdown; further notes that Jackdaw is projected to contribute just 2% of UK gas demand at most over its lifetime, will only create 27 direct full-time jobs and, according to the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, does not solve the problem of affordability; further believes that the only way to achieve genuine energy sovereignty is to get the UK off fossil fuels as fast as possible; recognises the ongoing and extensive public support for action to protect against the impacts of climate breakdown; and therefore calls on the Government to keep all new fossil fuels in the ground, including at Rosebank oil field in the North Sea, and instead focus on measures that would bring down bills and create secure jobs, like scaling up cheaper home-grown renewables, rolling out a fully-funded national home insulation programme, fully decoupling the price of gas from electricity, and ending rampant profiteering by energy companies.

Rent levels

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 13 October 2026

That this House notes with alarm that renters across the UK now pay on average a third of their wages on rent, the highest level on record; recognises the huge impact this is having on communities, with families forced to cut back on essentials and young people priced out of the areas they grew up in; further notes that the government is set to transfer £70 billion to private landlords through housing support between 2024 and 2028, six times the amount of money that was spent on affordable homes over the past five years; also notes research by the Joseph Roundtree Foundation that shows that rent controls would cut the cost of linking Local Housing Allowance rates to local rents by £1.1 billion in 2030/31; calls on the government to adopt an immediate emergency brake on private rents at the Budget, so that rent rises do not go above the lowest of CPI, wage growth or 2%; believes an emergency brake would give renters breathing space, saving the average private renter in England at least £884 over three years, while a national Fair Rents Guarantee is implemented; and demands this urgent and immediate Government action to end rip-off rents at the upcoming Autumn Budget.
