There isn’t enough oil and gas left in the North Sea for us to stop importing the stuff, and even if there were we’d still be exposed to global prices and we’ve never had enough to influence that. So reducing the “windfall tax” is just special pleading to not pay the UK for extracting our natural resources, it would have zero effect on any price we pay. Sod ‘em. Take the proceeds of the throw it at building renewables, storage and interconnects.
