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.

Jackdaw gas field

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 21 October 2026

That this House welcomes the end of the uncertainty for businesses and households across the North East of Scotland following the UK Government’s decision to license new drilling at the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea; stresses that the economic benefits of new drilling at Jackdaw must be felt by local communities now and for decades to come; recognises the need for domestic production of critical resources and the associated smaller carbon impact of these against international imports and their associated market volatility, and the resulting impact on household energy costs; and therefore calls on the Government to commit to use this opportunity as a turning point, to fund critical long-term green energy projects in Scotland and specifically the North East, such as the Acorn Project at St Fergus using funding allocated within the UK Government’s announced Energy Wealth Fund and denounces past, failed UK Government approaches to Scottish energy resources, which often plugged Treasury funding gaps at the expense of Scotland.

Supporting small businesses and the high street

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 21 October 2026

That this House recognises the vital contribution of small businesses, independent retailers and hospitality businesses to local economies and employment; expresses concern that high operating costs and business taxation place pressure on the viability of high street businesses; believes that the forthcoming Budget must deliver meaningful and predictable tax relief for small businesses; calls on the Chancellor of the Exchequer to reduce the business rates burden on smaller high street premises, review the impact of VAT and energy costs on small hospitality businesses, and provide greater certainty for businesses planning to invest and employ staff; and further calls for a fairer competitive environment for domestic retailers facing competition from overseas online sellers.

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.
