EU Energy proposals “missed opportunity” – Cuffe

Green Party MEP Ciaran Cuffe says EU proposals to deal with the rising costs of energy don’t go far enough and are a “missed opportunity”.   

The Dublin MEP voted against a European Parliament resolution to ease the pressure of rapidly rising energy prices on European households and businesses. The resolution calls for a range of measures to deal with the energy crisis including better protection of vulnerable consumers and an immediate and full embargo on oil, coal, nuclear fuel and gas from Russia.

But the Dublin MEP says the proposals won’t do enough to help people struggling with rocketing energy bills and they won’t accelerate the move away from fossil fuels.
