Discuss Want to know how your MP voted last night? in the Solar PV Forum | Solar Panels Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

How nice to know my MP is not two-faced. Expected the waste of space to vote for the cut and vote he did. He's just a clueless nobody who can't think for himself. Yes, I mean you Paul Uppal.
 
My MP is the top man himself, DC, when I see him, I best ask if I can move into the garage he has just bought (you need to watch the news), as I may have to sell my house...
 
Hell, I am confused here.
If there name is on the list, then they voted against Labour, who did not want the cut in tarrif, am I right???
 
The full list of how MPs voted is here: House of Commons Hansard Debates for 23 Nov 2011 (pt 0004) under Division No. 401

The Question on which this vote was held was:Resolved,
That this House notes that the previous administration only introduced a feed-in tariffs scheme following pressure from Liberal Democrat and Conservative hon. Members; further notes that during the period up to October 2011 over 120,000 UK solar installations had been completed; further notes that this is three times the deployment expected by the previous administration; recognises that no commercial-scale solar PV schemes were expected by the previous administration; further notes that the cost of PV panels has fallen by at least 30 per cent. since the current tariff was introduced and that the previous administration set the tariff levels for solar PV to deliver a five per cent. index-linked return;regrets that the previous administration did not draw on the experiences of Germany in setting a sustainable and predictable digression of tariffs; further notes that failing to act could add ÂŁ26 to the domestic electricity bill of all consumers in 2020 including the 5.5 million people left in fuel poverty by the previous administration; further regrets that the previous administration did not introduce a community tariff; believes that the Government is right to bring the tariff levels back in line with the rates of return envisaged; acknowledges that it is right to link support under feed-in tariffs to energy efficiency and the Green Deal ensuring the most cost-effective carbon abatement measures are introduced first; supports a consultation on the introduction of a community tariff; and further believes that the Government is putting feed-in tariffs on a long-term, fair and sustainable footing.

So the Cons and Lib-Dems voted Aye to this and Labour voted No.
 
If the name is on the list they agreed with the cut on 12/12 and voted for it not against it.

Was there more to the vote than just voting whether to stick to the schedule cut date of the 12/12? As an installer, now it has been announced, I am for the date being stuck to. What I am more concerned about is the level of the cut and the conditions attached to the new tariff.
