Global Justice Now has revealed that the government is spending an estimated £17.5 billion a year subsidising fossil fuels and the industry.
At the same time, workers in the UK’s oil and gas industry are fearing the worst as the government fails to commit proper funding to support them to transition their skills.
We can’t let workers who have helped to keep the lights on be left high and dry by the fossil fuel industry, while it receives billions in public support.
Donate today to help us hold the government to account and demand an emergency funding package for a just, worker-led transition.
