No they did not ,the solar panels you mentioned are paid for by central government and the F.I.T. goes to the council all part of the governments emission targets

If you are wondering how councils have been able to afford to do this, then this is largely due to the government's Feed in Tariff scheme. Usually a home owner who purchases a solar PV system will benefit from reduced energy costs and payments from the FIT. In the case of council properties, the tenant will still save on electricity but the Feed in Tariff will go back to the company that paid for the installation, i.e. the council themselves

Actually ,yes it is my right to have a council house ,as it is yours and any other British citizen ,and how is that at the expense of anyone or state funded when I pay full rent and receive no benefits whatsoever .Once again your pathetic and rather nasty prejudices are showing

The government isn't forcing people to move out ,of course if you read the link instead of letting your prejudices rule your brain you would know that.People with £60,000 cars in the drive will still be able to live in the houses because no one has the right to remove them .....even you
