The giant Rosebank oilfield can be approved without breaching(违反，突破) the UK’s emission targets, according to government insiders, in a boost to those in the cabinet who are pushing for it to be given the go-ahead(力推其获批).
据政府内部人士称，批准大型罗斯班克油田不会突破英国的排放目标，这对内阁中力推该项目获批的人士来说是一剂强心针。
The Guardian revealed last week that Miatta Fahnbulleh, the energy secretary, was leaning towards rejecting the project, but her position has put her at loggerheads with cabinet colleagues, including the chancellor, John Healey, who are lobbying for an approval.(《卫报》上周披露，能源大臣米亚塔·法恩布勒倾向于否决该项目，但她的立场使她与内阁同僚——包括财政大臣约翰·希利——发生争执，后者正在游说争取批准。)
