The gas is going up in price imported .......
Evidently Australia have stated they too could not do trade deals with the white paper agreed last Friday....
As technically we are still tied to the EU on trade agreements .....
It's a dogs mess !

What’s fracking (which is another Tory lead disgrace btw) got to do with electricity production?

I’m not sure that these things are true. As I’ve said before we can operate differing standards with other countries while maintaining EU standards in trading with the EU. An EU country must apply EU standards with any trading country, that will not be the case for the U.K. once we leave.....

Seemingly nothing if you’re either a Tory land owner or have equity in the fossil fuel sector.
Meanwhile in reality.......do your homework, there’s plenty of information out there, it’s completely unsuitable for our tiny island. If in doubt ask some people have direct experience of it, as I have done.

Double standards? Now there's a way to get rid of red tape for UK industry.
Ask the people of Oklahoma. A state that has has more earthquakes than any other state in the US.
Before fracking began in that state they experienced very little in the way of seismic activity but now they have gotten so bad their local governement has had to setup a resource page:

It causes less disruption, environmental and physical damage than mining ever did.....

Mining also causes such earth tremors and usually involves loss of life.....should we ban mining.....
That should take 5 years then.......

I hope you live near a shale seam and get to find out first hand, as they’re entitled to extend the extraction under the land and houses of people who haven’t given their approval. The smell, the noise, the lorries, the disruption, the environmental risks, it’s industrialisation of the countryside in order to perpetuate our reliance on fossil fuels as opposed to continuing the push towards renewables. I note some of the hard Brexiteers have already started bleating on about how it needs to be speeded up post Brexit to cover some of our shortfall...disaster capitalists ahoy.

Who told you Australia had said the Chequers deal would preclude a trade agreement with them btw?
