| Message | The SDLP opposes Article 1 as it creates a private monopoly, something far worse than a government one when considering everyday Solentian citizen power bills, private companies will certainly be unlikely to show any mercy. The SDLP however would support Article 2 were it separately forwarded in Senate Keith Magnusson Infrastructure and Transport Secretary |
