Small government with more localised decision making. We have 1,000+ houses that have gone through on appeal above the local Council's head, crazy lack of roads, schools, GP and really not a good decision but typical of how things are at the moment with the upping house building at any cost.
the Nordic models have considerably more in the way of local accountability. which is just about as opposite to the conservative/brexiteer vision as can be.
Thankfully for you, the tory government took the postal union to court to stop them striking over christmas your vote will count thanks to the tories, how'd ya feel bud
my mate Finm and i were discussing this the other day, when i made it known to him the Party that would get my vote. Oh you missed that Noobie, never mind.
Are we there yet? I've got a lovely bottle of wine ready for the 12th.. .... you watch the markets rise the next day, once the negligible chance of INDY2 and a Labour government are removed. Let's just hope Boris doesn't drop a bollock with Marr
My last will and testament will read "Being of Sound Mind I've spent all my money". bit obsessed with the filthy lucre.
Only in the sense it's the lubricant of life, not in and for itself... just enough to allow me to do what I want.
A fair point, but although things are still bad in some areas there is now proper competition and from my recollection the old British Rail service was pretty poor. Get onto my local Chiltern Line or GWR trains and they really are in a different league. When it's a monopoly without competition then maybe there is a better case for state control in some form. Privatisation has been a success: 1.65 billion rail journeys are made annually, more than double the number before privatisation, while the volume of freight carried on the railways is up 80% since privatisation. Compare that with the 35 years prior to privatisation, during which passenger numbers fell by a third. https://news.sky.com/story/sky-views-rail-privatisation-has-been-a-success-10719242 Utilities - Again there is real competition and I'm sure we'd be paying more for our electricity and gas if they had remained state owned.
all a bit one-eyed Kirky, father was a Engineman (driver) for 45 years on SR and i was kept informed about privatisation, suggest you get a better source of info.
