UK delays Jackdaw gasfield decision until after byelection; Greens allege political motive

The UK energy secretary's recommendation on approving the Jackdaw North Sea gasfield has been postponed to later this autumn, after the Holborn and St Pancras byelection. The Greens accuse Labour of delaying to avoid political backlash, though the government has not confirmed a reason. The delay signals potential political sensitivity around fossil-fuel approvals ahead of the vote.
