    I’ve no doubt that this guy is being entirely self-serving and disingenuous, but the sad fact is that the UK still does still import half of its oil and gas.

    • Plus side of reducing oil production is that prices will go up and will drive the introduction of renewables as they become attractive and help save the world.

    • Downside is that we will all feel poorer during this transition

    I’m in favour of cutting, but it’s important to be clear about the implications.
