The government has banned fracking with immediate effect in a watershed moment for environmentalists and community activists.

Call me cynical, but I find it coincidental that the Tories announce this during an election campaign. A campaign which, if they went to secure a majority, then they need to win seats in northern England where most fracking trials have been conducted.
