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.

Autumn Budget and cost of living support

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 21 October 2026

That this House notes with alarm that we are facing an enduring and escalating affordability crisis, made worse by this summer’s record breaking and deadly heatwaves; further notes that this is only set to get worse this winter, with energy bills going up by over £270 from January and devastating flooding predicted; believes that the Autumn Budget should not be a business as usual affair but must be a Budget to make the UK affordable and to invest in our long-term climate resilience; further believes that over £60 billion could be raised to achieve these ends, by taxing the extreme wealth and profits of those with the broadest shoulders; supports measures to tax wealth fairly including bringing Capital Gains Tax in line with Income Tax, introducing National Insurance on investment income and an annual wealth tax on billionaires and multi-millionaires; further supports measures to introduce a tax on the huge windfall profits of banks; demands an end to all fossil fuel tax breaks and a permanent energy profits levy; also believes tax reliefs for data centres should be removed; and calls on the Treasury to introduce the above revenue raising measures to fund vital cost-of-living support on the 28th October.

Charter for Community Rights

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 12 October 2026

That this House supports the Charter for Community Rights, recognising that decades of treating the essentials of a decent life as commodities to be sold for profit rather than as public goods meant where private profit collided with well-being it was communities which lost out including through corner-cutting on housing developments or the chipping away of green spaces to increase shareholder profits; therefore declares its support for seven community rights, a right to a clean and healthy environment, a right to a healthy home, a right to play, a right to grow food on public sector land, a right to roam and swim, a right to participate in local decisions which shape communities, and a right to challenge local decisions which affect people's lives; believes these rights must be immovable and non-negotiable safeguards of the foundations of a decent life; recognises that the rapidly changing climate brings these rights into sharper focus, making it essential to climate-proof communities so that rising temperatures do not mean declining living standards; notes that these rights must precede mechanisms for a meaningful say for communities in placemaking, including over the proliferation of AI data centres; and calls on the Government to implement the Charter.
