David Cameron: UK must accept the potential of fracking
theguardian.com, Monday 12 August 2013  
David Cameron has insisted the UK should accept fracking, claiming the controversial method of extracting gas will attract "real public support" when the benefits are explained.
The prime minister said the process would not damage the countryside and cause only "very minor change to the landscape".
Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Cameron said: "I want all parts of our nation to share in the benefits: north or south, Conservative or Labour.
"If neighbourhoods can really see the benefits - and get proper reassurance about the environment - then I don't see why fracking shouldn't get real public support."
