She called on Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves to support renewed drilling in the North Sea, especially as global oil markets face disruption linked to tensions affecting the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p>Coutinho claimed that Miliband\u2019s approach to energy policy has added around \u00a3200 to household bills since the election, framing his environmental agenda as economically harmful. She argued that restricting fossil fuel production in the UK increases reliance on imports, which can be more expensive and less secure, particularly during periods of geopolitical instability.<\/p>\n<p>She also warned that aggressive decarbonisation policies risk damaging British industry, summarising her position with the phrase \u201cde-carbonisation means de-industrialisation.\u201d As part of the Conservative Party\u2019s alternative approach, Coutinho said they would remove carbon taxes and expand domestic energy production to reduce costs and support economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>#edmiliband  #labour  #tories  <\/p>\n<p>Keep up to date with GB News at gbnews.com or on X @GBNEWS<\/p>\n<p>Become a Friend of GB News: gbnews.com\/friend<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u2018Pipe DOWN!\u2019 | Ed Miliband BRUTALLY TARGETED over green policies preventing north sea drilling Go to https:\/\/piavpn.com\/GBNews to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2847,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[417],"tags":[473,236,3533,2364,3532,18,442,471,472,263,264,3534,31,474,247,2627,475,2378,279,235],"class_list":{"0":"post-2846","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gb-news","8":"tag-analysis","9":"tag-breaking-news","10":"tag-claire-coutinho","11":"tag-conservatives","12":"tag-ed-miliband","13":"tag-energy","14":"tag-gb-news","15":"tag-gb-news-live","16":"tag-gbn","17":"tag-keir-starmer","18":"tag-labour","19":"tag-net-zero","20":"tag-news","21":"tag-news-update","22":"tag-politics","23":"tag-rachel-reeves","24":"tag-reports","25":"tag-tories","26":"tag-uk","27":"tag-world-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@videos\/116334157025099710","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2846","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2846"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2846\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2847"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2846"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2846"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2846"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
