Accused of industrial and employment vandalism , yet the SNP have yet to produce their energy policy and categorically back the North Sea but are just whining at the edges whilst overseeing the real world consequences here: https://www.shetnews.co.uk/2025/11/25/how-soon-will-we-have-to-subsidise-sullom-voe/

Milliband has washed his hands and will rightly be evicted from parliament in the next election! RR said ‘These are Labour choices ‘ she baulked @ a windfall on banks for alleged fear of losing their favour ( her next job perhaps ) ! She could have simply set EPL to start after. First £ 100-£250m profit to soften the blow for the smaller NS operators and still raise funds from ‘ Those with the broadest shoulders ‘ not rocket science is it !

Recon the polling for Labour in Scotland will necessitate some change as the papers are damning ! Farage will make hay and likely the reform , conservative agenda will sway some extra thought ! There will be casualties in the next few months with every lost worker and company hitting the front pages ! Sawar likely to see some industrial strife directly pointed at him imho

Stevo , I think Anas Sawar is in a sweat ! Shona Robertson ( SNP Finance Minister) has already blamed the quickly diminishing O&G worker personal tax take through loss of jobs as a hole they will need to fill! I can hear her now saying income tax will change because of EPL job induced losses

Forgot to add the one piece of positive news ! A bit late I know but well done AB on seeing this car crash coming and sorting out the refinance before it happened !!

M just reading your post whilst watching Milliband Cop 30 statement yesterday ! An empty chamber with empty rhetoric yet He was relishing the dispatch box with a similar grin to that of Jack Nicholsons Randie McMurphy! Sammy Miller DUP asked why are we not using our resources ! Milliband just dismissed his comment without any regard to the carnage he’s leaving behind ! Recon We’ve another 4 years of pain ! Waldorf will fail and we’ll pick up a handful of interests to be sure if survival but the 60p party will have to wait until 2030 or Starmers capitulation

2.10 The government will set two thresholds: one for oil and one for gas, and they will apply per financial year.

2.11 The OGPM thresholds for the financial year 2026 to 2027 will be: • Oil: $90 per a barrel • Gas: 90p per a therm.

Those in fire straights now more likely to fail! Fire sale notices are in the window and no more do than Waldorf: The Extension/Appeal: Waldorf sought to challenge this decision. In September 2025, the judge granted a certificate allowing an application for permission to appeal directly to the Supreme Court on a point of law of general public importance.

Supreme Court Involvement: The Supreme Court granted permission to appeal in October 2025 and ordered that the appeal be expedited, with a hearing anticipated in January or February 2026. This case is expected to provide important guidance on UK restructuring and insolvency law.

R , bbc seems to infer the report has a new mechanism! P&J articles real world views , not biased ideology : https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/business/local/6900589/energy-profits-levy-scrapped-kept-changed/

R merely a tangent too far but was referring to previous Mansplaner that our chancellor has taken the route to be unpopular! Psychologist’s claim it to be a strategy yet Labour are weak needy flowers looking to be loved and the ‘Mansplaning’ adjective RR used shows she’s a little upset with likely cabinet male members overly simplifying the dire need to sort EPL as evidenced by the ongoing horse trading ! Recent straw poll of my Greener friends certainly notes a shift in their understanding that it’s a rerun of the miners

The mis step of believers is often seen with a different perspective by those that do not believe : AI Overview

Making yourself unpopular often involves exhibiting certain behaviors and adopting specific mindsets that clash with social norms and expectations, leading others to lose interest or actively dislike you. This can be driven by both conscious choice and unconscious psychological factors.

R , the current Labour cohort believe they are the preserve of the younger modern Labour of Morgan ! Oh how wrong they are as the transient flip floppers are equally upset by incompetence and the rapid demise of UK PlC in the hands of Our chancellor ! No mansplaning needed ! History will be ruthless

R , sadly milliband & Reeves are simple politicians who cannot see past their initial decision! So U turns a knee jerk reactions abound ! Either that or he probably read the rest of the report on Finlands use of heat pumps and suddenly said ' bugger' :-)

In an effort to increase take up he’s given way to air source.. I’d suggested a year past this was inevitable ! We now have some reasonable routes to home heating with off peak wind energy ! I’ll be a subscriber as fractional heating in the home is the way to go ! https://www.gov.uk/government/news/discounts-for-families-to-keep-warm-in-winter-and-cool-in-summer

Hi , I agree there’s unlikely to be a withdrawal of headline EPL , just tinkering with allowances , timings , tie backs and tax breaks for co2/ greening actions ! That’ll be classed as incentivising growth and jobs

Flys to COP 30 whilst more economic / energy security ensues with Shell bailing out of 2 Offshore projects in British waters ! https://finance.yahoo.com/news/shell-abandons-two-major-uk-143000453.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAE6UogFeIX12xWtzvifS8o_IcFf_fw2a6tybnJidZxXTgZRbleE9hx0oHRXREqP4Nk_phzaJqK-cIhEHCxXtY6fQwaX47I5KpCJQkSuIFSPbZZAOpPoxjSMWW2BRWvFpWBUOylSvPOcEgWQEdaqoT388S-rsk0qzts179KS9YRHL

Likely explains this a little more from half year results : In August, EnQuest signed a multi-year contract with Well-Safe, which secures the Well-Safe Defender rig for a minimum of 230 days across 2026 and 2027. The contract also includes options for EnQuest to add further activities between 2028 and 2034, creating the potential for a strategic partnership that would secure vital supply chain resources in the North Sea well into the next decade

Seems the climate cowboy is off to Brazil ! He’d planned to offer $1bn of our taxes as a bounty but likely Starmer getting uneasy about the changing priorities of The UK voters : https://www.politico.eu/article/uk-treasury-cop30-brazil-tropical-forest-pledge/#:~:text=Brazil%20has%20pledged%20an%20initial,very%20close%20to%20the%20budget.%E2%80%9D
