Trump on North Sea heating costs
Donald Trump predicts heating prices will go way down if the UK opens up the North Sea, specifically citing the Great North Sea. This response came after a reporter at Áras an Uachtaráin on RTÉ News noted Irish domestic heating oil costs have risen 40% compared to pre-war levels. The US President also warned that closing valuable sites globally while opening the area is key to getting those prices to tumble. #DonaldTrump #UnitedKingdom

Mr President, the Irish are paying 40% more for home heating oil than they were before the war. What is your message to them? Well, I think what happens if they open up, if you open up in the UK, the North Sea, your prices will tumble. As soon as they open up the Great North Sea, and they have it, they're going to close valuable sites in the world. When that's open, your prices are going to go way down. Thank you very much. Congratulations! Congratulations!
