“He (Business and Energy Minister Matthew Hancock) added that shale gas was a ‘key part’ of the government’s plans to tackle climate change and ‘bridge to a much greener future’”.

“About half the UK is open for licensing, including parts of National Parks.”
Does wrecking National Parks sound green? These parks are our precious heritage and are not at the disposal of the current political whims.
