//The previous Conservative government imposed two tax hikes on UK oil and gas profits - raising them to 65% and then 75% in response to soaring energy prices following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.//
Yes, we can all read. But of course the reason for that is totally different and cash raised was used to soften the blow (like fuel duty lowered). Raising it even higher to fund an idealogy at the same time as removing tax incentives for investment will stifle the business, they will simple move elsewhere as there is plenty of oil/gas in the World and they really dont care where they operate as they are International.

Cornwall Insight has announced its final forecast for the October - December Q4 2024 Default Tariff Cap (price cap) following the closure of the observation window1 on 16 August.
For a typical dual fuel household2 we predict the October price cap to be £1,714 per annum. This is a rise of 9% from the current price cap which was set at £1,568 per year for a typical consumer. Ofgem will announce the October cap on Friday 23 August. //
The energy companies are planning on grabbing excess profits in the coming months for doing absolutely nothing different. Zilch. Most of the companies are foreign owned thanks to Mrs Thatcher, and the money to shareholders will go to investors in France and Germany not here.
I am not a supporter of windfall taxes, but I dislike profiteering event more. Sadly renationalising them is not really possible so the next best thing is to discourage them from profiteering by taxing excessive profits.
