  • Trump told the White House that North Sea oil reserves were exceptionally valuable and that opening them could make Britain prosperous.

  • He described wind turbines as financially loss-making and broadly associated their use with a losing country.

  • After his first phone call with Trump, Andy Burnham announced a pragmatic approach to the North Sea, appearing to signal a possible shift from Labour’s 2024 manifesto against new licences.

  • Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh said the manifesto allowed existing licences to be exploited and that oil and gas were part of the energy mix, while she did not address any plans to go further.
  • You’re sitting on top of gold, better than gold, and you don’t do anything with it.

Key FactsRivals Avoid Contesting Clacton By-Election

  • Lee Anderson accuses rival parties of cowardice for not standing candidates against Nigel Farage in the upcoming Clacton by-election.

  • Farage resigned as MP to trigger the by-election and seek re-election, a move criticized as a political stunt by other parties.

  • A Parliamentary standards investigation into Farage’s financial conduct is paused during the election but may resume if he returns to Parliament.

  • Labour, Conservative, and Liberal Democrat leaders denounce the by-election as a sham, while Reform UK claims opponents fear electoral defeat.
  • It's funny how the other political parties were so desperate to get rid of Nigel Farage and Reform, but now that they have the opportunity to do so, they are running scared. They are terrified of facing the voters. That's because they know they would be obliterated and Reform UK would prove that it still has the overwhelming support of the public. They are cowards.
    — Lee Anderson, Reform UK MP for Ashfield, commenting after rival parties refused to stand candidates against Nigel Farage in the Clacton by-election.
