| Message | we disagree, for this does not give financial incenitves to those who need them... this means high taxation on energy consumption. |
| Date | 22:54:43, March 31, 2008 CET | From | Republican Socialist Party | To | Debating the RSP - Energy for the People |
| Message | no, it doesn't, it simply means that the energy companies that would have taken profits would simply have those profits for the people. by voting no you are denying the people the chance to improve society and the responsibility of companies in society. |

| Message | that's not true... you are obviously trying to deny the fact that what you're doing is weakening the rights of low-income families... |

| Message | can you explain your point because it clearly makes no sense as the RSP has been at the fore front of defending the workers of this country. we are simply taking away the big corrupt companies that bleed low income familes for energy. as many low income families have a choice, food or heat/lights (ie energy) we are now ensuring that the people have quite cheap and afforadable energy that is social responsiblie. you claim that we are weaking the rights of the workers when you voted in favour of de-regulating the energy sector, who is it now that is abusing the rights and defences of the workers. |

| Message | i have never voted in favour of something which weakens the rights of the people... I clearly stated in that bill that low income families would be helped by financial incentives... what im trying to say here... is that having nationalised companies would definitely be a help to social standards but does it ensure financial subsidies??? does this bill ensure uncorrupt facilites and help to those in need... no it does not... i will propose a bill which does very soon... |
