Katherine May, head of Oxfam Scotland,
said: “It’s hardly surprising that a report
commissioned by an oil company concludes that more drilling is a good idea. Asking it to assess Jackdaw and Rosebank is like asking
a seagull whether chips should be left
unguarded.”

Interesting mixed press for yesterday's demo in Whitehall; but great quote from Oxfam Scotland with their take on the economic costs #pragmatic

"Areeba Hamid, co-executive director of Greenpeace, which challenged the original decision to grant licences, said approval for the fields would make “zero difference” to energy bills and generate few jobs.
“Despite these meagre benefits, we would be prolonging a polluting industry that’s fuelling heatwaves while sending a disastrous signal to our international allies,” she said."

Farih Birol of #IEA on Rosebank and Jackdaw licensing: “It is up to the government, but these fields would not change much for the UK’s energy security, nor would they change the price of oil and gas. They would not make any significant difference to this crisis.” #UKPolitics #FossilFreeLondon

@workingclasshistory Thanks for sharing this - had seen the (slightly earlier) Shell report, but not this one - let's channel our anger purposefully #FossilCapital #bringsciencetopolitics #FossilFreeLondon #climatebreakdown

@ketan
Wouldn't be hard for them to buy consent to drill #Rosebank, then? Need to keep showing public support for #ClimateAction #UKPolitics #NoNewOilandGas #Equinor #FossilFreeLondon -

First day of #FossilFreeLondon picket outside #DESNZ went well this morning, despite the rain; some supportive staffers - and even a brief interchange with SoS #EdMilliband . Many already know the arguments to #StopRosebank; if you're a UK voter, make sure they hear from you too #UKPolitics

Rosebank is a carbon bomb. As the largest undeveloped oil field in the North Sea, it would create more emissions than the 700 million people living in the world’s poorest countries produce in a year.
Rosebank would give millions to companies fuelling genocide. It’s co-owned by Ithaca, whose parent company Israeli Delek Energy provides fuel to the IDF, and operates in illegal settlements in the West Bank. They’d get £253 million in profits from Rosebank.

Message from #FossilFreeLondon :
FOR OUR CLIMATE, FOR PALESTINE! Stop Rosebank. ✊
📍DESNZ, SW1A 2AW. 🕐 12pm, Saturday 18th October.THERE'S ONLY WEEKS LEFT TO STOP THIS DEADLY OIL FIELD.
Equinor, Rosebank’s majority owner, has just re-submitted its application to develop the field. Our government will decide whether to approve it after a 30-day public consultation, kicking off any day now. We can’t let this go ahead. Because…
