Plot
From the discovery of huge oil fields off the coast of Scotland to their mass privatisation during the Thatcher era The Oil Machine highlights how oil became the invisible engine driving UK economic and public policy In the wake of COP26 in Glasgow demand for climate action has become a key societal concern and the pressure on both oil companies and the government continues to mount Bringing together a wide range of voices from industry executives and economists to young activists Davie offers a visceral and thoughtprovoking interrogation into how this insidious machine might be dismantled
