Comment on Green conference votes AGAINST energy company nationalisation

MrPoletki@feddit.uk ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

The motion called for the deletion of a previous commitment that:

The five largest energy supply companies will be nationalised.

Instead, it called for the insertion of:

As natural monopolies with, at present, high profit margins, electricity national transmission and regional distribution will be brought into public ownership.

And it wanted to insert a position that “electricity generation and storage” are not natural monopolies and should therefore:

have diversity of ownership including private, public, municipal and community schemes
