Scottish Labour leader urges approval of Rosebank oil field

Scottish Labour leader Michael Marra has appealed directly to Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh to approve production at Rosebank, the UK's largest untapped oil field, 80 miles north-west of Shetland. The push shows how energy politics has shifted within Labour, which came to power in 2024 pledging no new North Sea drilling, before the US-Israel-Iran war closed the Strait of Hormuz.
