Dear Jakswan,
How are you old son
Good trust you are well I do not frequent these parts that much these days, a quick preview of your reply makes me think this isn't going to change.
Criteria, you want criteria, sure me old friend, lets see, building that won't fall down around our children, no cost cutting at all, the best of the best for our future, not some children, all children, oh and fuck the cost, we are talking about our children.
So all business should be nationalised subject to 'someone think of the children', its not exactly got much substance to it really, want to have another go?
Is that enough criteria for you, I have lots of criteria for you, what about the NHS being bleed dry by private firms who see the NHS as some kind of cash cow.
Oh there is more how refreshing, I'm confused though I asked for criteria and you've not given me any, another try perhaps?
What about buses to rural spots, does the wee granny not have the right to shop at Tesco like the rest of us, no who cares about the wee granny, the criteria should be, access to public transport for all, not just the route which make a profit.
So public transport that being nationalised because wee granny. So does that apply to everything that wee granny wants, my mum, a granny wants to go on a cruise every year is the Gonzo Raving Party going to spend our tax money on that as well?
What about the millions who use the train ( I nearly said our trains haha haha ) the millions who keep our country running, the criteria should be, they should be able to travel to work in a safe and comfortable condition, oh and that the train is on time everytime, and be affordable.
I'm on a train, its safe, quite comfy and my ticket from Swansea to Norwich cost me £32.50.
And to end, no not nationalise everything, I am all for private enterprise but not at the expense of the ordinary working man.
Again what does that mean, I'm a working man, Gopogle charge my company to advertise, at my expense in effect, will the Ministry of Search Engines be taken over when you get your hands on power.
Now your turn, give me an example of privatisation that works, and you can't use the mob who run Londons water, they have just been fined big time ( not big enough in my opinion ) for polluting the Thames.
My GP, Dentist and local chemist all provide their services as a private sector businesses, I have no complaints. My sister who works for NHS in Wales (very little privatisation) has a few horror stories about terrific waste at the hands of a bureaucracy that simply will never compete with private enterprise.
