In words that suggested the UK could place yet more emphasis on technologies to capture and store carbon, Graham Stuart said fossil fuel production was not driving climate change, but demand for fossil fuels was.
His statements were a bullish defence of the government’s much-criticised stance.
“I don’t think supply is the key driver – it is demand we need to focus on,” said Stuart, who will attend the Cop28 UN climate summit that begins later this month, where the future of oil and gas production will be under scrutiny.
Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, that’s what gets you.
“I don’t think supply is the key driver – it is demand we need to focus on,” said Stuart

The axe didn’t kill that family, it was the gashes and severed limbs.
In one of his first interviews in his new position with the BBC, Stuart commented that Oil and Gas Exploration in the North Sea would be “good for the environment”.
In 2023, reports emerged that Stuart had received £10,000 donation towards his campaign from energy company JR Rix & Sons based out of Hull
