Fracking ‘would really help rejuvenate the northern economy’ says supporter
Nigel Farage has won the Clacton by-election, the vote he has long described as a “people vs Establishment” contest.
Shortly after 6am, Mr Farage was confirmed to have returned to the House of Commons.
He secured 22,239 votes while his closest rival, a satirical candidate named Count Binface, received 9,455.
The other main Westminster parties boycotted the by-election entirely, though Mr Farage could face them in a potential second vote at a later date.
Mr Farage resigned as an MP to trigger the contest at the start of July amid a probe by the parliamentary standards commissioner over a £5million gift he received before becoming an MP.

Reform UK’s Treasury spokesman vowed to ban all foreign nationals from claiming benefits in a new plan to slash the ballooning £50billion welfare bill.
Questioning the plans, GB News Senior Political Correspondent Katherine Forster quizzed Mr. Jenrick on the possibility of having to deal with the European Union as a result of his proposals.

Look at the fracking fluid chemicals and tell me that's safe.. Benzene is a carcinogen. The sun is going through sun cycles. Even though the fact checkers will say I'm wrong. "since records began".. It's all bs. Do a bit of research, and you'll see. Look up Graham Hancock on climate change.

And pollute the environment……Fracking sites release a toxic stew of air pollution that includes chemicals that can cause severe headaches, asthma symptoms, childhood leukemia, cardiac problems, and birth defects. In addition, many of the 1,000-plus chemicals used in fracking are harmful to human health—some are known to cause cancer.

Let's be blunt, parliament are as wrong on this as they were on Brexit. Parliamentarians believe the opposite to what the electorate think. I think it's time people voted with principle rather than tribalism and vote Reform UK. It's never going to get any better with old guard Tory and Labour liberals. They might as well all for a unified Green party and everyone else goes Reform.

Fracking is a bad idea it contaminates the ground, we could follow India and make gas from sewage with the biproduct being organic fertilizers. I’m not woke or green and work in the oil and gas sector but would never work on a fracking site in uk as we just don’t have the land mass to do it safely.

Carbon is plant food. Why do these people hate trees/plants? Millions of years ago, carbon was at 400ppm and the world was a lush, green paradise with abundant animal life everywhere. Now we’re at about 200ppm and we have expanding deserts. Don’t they realise if we’re taken to about 125ppm that’s us done for as humans can’t survive at such low levels?

Methane is a short-lived gas that breaks down quickly when it is released into the air .. another green lie that methane would be dangerous ..

fracking is really bad, so lets ignore the contamination to the ground water from all those perfectly safe chemicals
and also the risks of creating earthquakes when you shatter the bed rock.

Make friends with Russia, they have unlimited gas supplies. The gas pipelines in Ukraine are 80% wear and tear. Ukraine is not looking after them. If you wish to rejuvenate North, support pipeline industry. Make friends with Ukraine and help them repair old gas infrastructure. Everybody wins.

I'm no environmentalist but I can't see how fracking is more cost effective than renewal energy like wind and solar power?

We should NEVER allow a tiny minority to dictate to the vast majority about what we can have. These are natural resources the country NEEDS, to hell with the dumbass 'Green Agenda'.
