Summary
The controversial Rosebank offshore oil development gets the go ahead. Just a week after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak changed up his Government's climate targets, regulators have approved a new offshore development off the coast of Shetland. Supporters say it's essential to the green transition and will create jobs, but critics say it's just another blow in the fight against climate change. BBC Scotland's Environment, Energy, & Rural Affairs Correspondent Kevin Keane joins the team to weigh up the arguments for and against, what it means for Scotland, and discusses the balancing act political parties face between jobs, energy security, and climate targets when it comes to North Sea oil and gas.
