‘Fossil fuel companies above British people’: MPs clash over Liz Truss fracking decision | England’s fracking ban has been lifted as Liz Truss’s Government vowed to explore all avenues to improve energy security, setting Downing Street on a collision course with environmental campaigners. Business and Energy Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg said the impact of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine means securing domestic energy supplies is vital as he defended lifting the moratorium on fracking, which has been in place since 2019 after a series of tremors caused by the process. Fracking is the process of hydraulic fracturing, which uses high-pressure liquid to release gas from shale formations.Credit Daily Mail
