Lib Dems fight to protect renewable energy sector

A news release from the Liberal Democrats brings the news:

Commenting on the Energy Bill which will be debated in the House of Lords tomorrow (Monday), Energy and Climate Change Spokesperson Lynne Featherstone said:

“Liberal Democrats have made changes to the Government’s Energy Bill in the House of Lords, and will be fighting to protect onshore wind subsidies in the debate.

“We will be fighting to keep these changes, which will help protect our renewable energy industry in the face of brutal Conservative cuts.

“Now they are in government alone, the Tories have reverted to type and have shown they have no commitment to the green energy which will help tackle climate change and protect our world for future generations.

“Britain risks falling behind other countries as the government pursues ideological cuts.”

All of which is a good reason to remember this:
