Massive Attack, Once Burnham's Climate Ally, Now Urges Him to Block North Sea Oil and Gas Projects

In June 2025, Massive Attack stood with Andy Burnham in Manchester to endorse the Fossil Fuel Treaty. Now the collective is among 211 artists, including Thom Yorke and Brian Eno, urging the UK prime minister to reject the Rosebank oilfield and Jackdaw gasfield. The government's consultation on Rosebank closed on Monday; ministers must now decide both projects' fate.
