Get ready for fracking, Reform UK tells energy firms
Reform UK urges energy firms to prepare for fracking in the UK, led by the party's deputy leader Richard Tice. Despite past failed attempts due to environmental concerns and opposition, Reform UK plans to lift the ban on fracking and collaborate with oil and gas companies for shale gas exploration. Tice believes that within two years, the UK could determine the viability of fracking for shale gas, advocating for a government framework that attracts investment without using public funds. The party's push for shale gas exploration faces challenges but aims to tap into the economic and job potential of this energy resource.
