Rishi Sunak urged by senior Tories to back onshore renewable energy rather than oil and gas
Senior Tories have urged Rishi Sunak to back onshore renewable energy rather than off-shore oil and gas after a poll showed strong support for alternative power sources among Conservative voters. A survey on behalf of the Conservative Environment Network (CEN) revealed that 82 per cent of people want to see more renewable energy in the UK, including 77 per cent of Tory voters at the 2019 election, and 81 per cent who plan to vote for the party next time. In last week’s King’s Speech, the Prime Minister made a fresh push for new oil and gas licences in the North Sea. The Government has insisted the expansion is essential to the UK’s energy security and will not affect its Net Zero targets. But former Cabinet minister Sir Simon Clarke argued that the poll results showed there was a “silent majority” in favour of renewables and that backing onshore wind and solar should be at the heart of the Tories’ offer to the electorate. The polling for CEN, by Public First, was conducted in 19 Conservative-held seats, including those where there are existing renewable energy developments.
