NEW: In 2023, BP invested 7 times as much in fossil fuels ($9.3bn) and distributed 10 times ($13.1 bn) as much to shareholders as it invested in “low carbon” ($1.3 bn). Big Oil won’t deliver a just transition for people and planet.

NEW: Legislation announced during King’s Speech to allow oil and gas companies to bid yearly to explore for more oil and gas in the North Sea. New oil and gas WON'T lower bills or improve energy security, but will wreck the climate. #KingsSpeech

Who really benefits from hundreds more oil and gas licences? Us, or profiteering oil giants? What the UK Government doesn't want you to know 👇 #KingsSpeech

The UK gov today announced the award of 27 new oil & gas licences--part of the 100 licences it's been talking about awarding since late last year. Oil and gas licensing will also likely feature in the King's speech next week. 🧵on why this is bad politics rather than good policy

In no universe does it make sense for UK taxpayers to lose out to a foreign oil company in a cost-of-living crisis, over a project which won’t provide affordable energy but will heat the world. Me in the @yorkshirepost on #Rosebank yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/opinion/c…

The Norwegian company that owns Rosebank is getting a £3.75 BILLION tax break from the UK. They admitted the oil is being sold on the global market. They also admitted it won't do anything to bring down our bills. Sound like a good idea? Tell @thetimes what you think 👇👇👇

All the reasons that the UK government's decision to approve Rosebank is a disaster for the climate, the UK economy and the millions of households struggling with their energy bills (but great news for Equinor & Ithaca)--in 60 seconds.
