Labour accused of ‘climate vandalism’ by Green leader Polanski after Jackdaw gasfield approved – UK politics live

The UK government has approved the Jackdaw gasfield, which is scheduled to begin supplying gas to homes and businesses by the end of the month. The decision follows a period of political scrutiny regarding the project's role in the nation's energy supply.

The approval has drawn criticism from Green Party leader Carla Denlay, who characterized the move as an act of climate vandalism. Environmental groups have also formally condemned the government's decision to proceed with the gasfield development.
