Up until Sept 2022, Fracking was the subject to moratorium in England as just before the 2019 election, the UK Government placed a moratorium on fracking in England. 


But that has all changed. 


We go again, this time in the knowledge that there is no logic, new evidence or case to bring back fracking into our communities.


Moratorium or effective bans are in place many other countries and states around the world.

We call for an immediate BAN of fracking and all onshore unconventional oil and gas exploration and production, including coal bed methane and acid stimulation

We believe that continuing to develop a new onshore oil and gas industry in the UK will result in unacceptable negative impacts on the climate, public health, the environment, local communities and the economy.

The greenhouse gas emissions resulting from any new onshore oil and gas exploration and production will increase climate change at a time when the UK needs to be investing heavily in clean renewable energy and moving rapidly towards a low-carbon economy.
Since forming in 2016, Frack Free United has built a network of  community and political opposition to fracking. We have been at the forefront of anti-fracking political campaigning driving the conversations about fracking earthquakes, the Let Communities Decide campaign on fracking by Permitted Development, lobbying in Parliament on protest injunctions, delivering Prime Minister letter campaigns, organising parliamentary debates and political conference events, lobbying and responding to committee inquiries and consultations such as the National Audit Office (NAO) request for evidence

We have signed up thousands of supporters, numerous politicians, academics and groups to pressure the government to stop fracking in all its forms. Now it's time to ask MP Candidates to back our call to ban fracking in the UK. 

Fracking is opposed by various United Nations committees, numerous well-respected conservation organisations, academics and hundreds of concerned local community groups. It is clear that fracking and an onshore oil and gas industry is irreconcilable with the UK Parliament’s declaration of a climate change emergency. 

We believe that to prevent fracking in the UK we must work together to put all forms of extreme energy extraction on the political agenda. 
Help us to take call to halt fracking to the corridors of power. By developing an extensive network of communities, campaigners and politicians, information can be shared quickly to keep you up to date with the issue and share joint actions.

01Sign up politicians

Join the ever growing call to ban fracking. The one simple requirement that politicians will need to fulfil in order to receive our backing is for them to support our  pledge to oppose fracking.

Political pledge:

‘‘If my constituency, division or ward is at risk of fracking, I will actively oppose it. If my constituency is not at risk, I will oppose fracking nationwide.’

We can work with you to put into place campaigns to help you to oppose fracking in your area and connect you with local campaign groups.

You are vital to the plan. 
 
In the majority of areas under threat from fracking blocks it is becoming clear that to stop fracking we have to change the minds of those in power who decide, or change the people who make the decisions.

Supporter pledge to candidates:

"We will endorse, promote and support politicians and candidates who pledge to stand against fracking."
