Old-Dutch Indeed. The drilling argument is nonsense as it is zero cost, zero risk to the UK. All he has to do is issue licences. The costs and risks are taken on by the exploration companies who won’t drill if they don’t think it’s worth it. Any gas found is pumped directly to the UK. We would use what we need and stop spending billions importing LNG and gas. More billions for the UK in tax revenue. Miliband is a fanatical ballbag
