Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

As the May election nears, cost of living concerns escalate due to rising oil and gas prices, driven by the Middle East crisis. Scottish politicians, including Labour MP Chris Murray, pledge to block Rosebank oilfield development, sparking debate on energy security and the need for reliable sources amid international tensions. The push for renewables has left some workers jobless, and voters prioritize bill-lowering policies over increases like Labours planned fuel duty rise. Balancing energy needs during crises requires practical steps to keep costs in check.
