Original Note:
Imported LNG has 4x more carbon emissions only in the production process - this misrepresents its impact. Taking into account the burning of LNG, imported LNG produces around 14% more carbon emissions according to International Energy Agency data - far from the 400% claimed. https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/sunak-claims-north-sea-gas-four-times-less-polluting-than-imports
