Ed Davey demands robust windfall as Shell profits announced

4 May 2023

Responding to the latest Shell profits, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey MP said:

"Energy giants like Shell should not be able to rake in huge profits while families across the country are struggling to make ends meet.

"Shell's latest profits once again demonstrate the urgent need for a robust windfall tax on big energy companies.

"Rishi Sunak's refusal to close windfall loopholes for big energy companies shows just how out of touch this Conservative Government is with the struggles that families are facing right now."
