The UK government is still reviewing onshore fracking (the British Geo survey & North Sea Authority from memory). Remember the North Sea Authority asked Cuadrilla to stop plugging the wells until June 2023, I suspect what the review will find is that the UK seismic limits are too low (0.5 magnitude) and that they should be brought in line with other developed nations which (from memory) is somewhere between 1.5-2 magnitude. The public service will recommend this due to the harrowing energy situation the UK and Europe is facing over the next 10-15 years as the North Sea production continues to decline due for various reasons, Russia is pushed out of the European energy market and pivots to Asia and the EU and world realise it is better socially and environmentally to consume gas from countries where there are high production environmental and safety standards as opposed to the hypocrisy of exporting emissions, poor safety standards and cheap labour.

Although politically this is not palatable, so you'd need a heroic and forward looking government.
