On another note and just reflecting: It's funny just how few of Thatchers policies were overturned by Labour afterwards.


In a lot of cases it was impossible to do so, as in reopening mines and relighting forges. Also its kind of difficult to reopen Docks for business again once they've been turned into retail experiences. Anyroad, yep, renationalisation was and still is an option for a lot of things. I mean we've kind of done it with the high street banks ;) Plus we'd save several billion quid that we pay in subsidies to these large Private Companies which would be a bonus.



....just thinking, they didn't reverse the hated Poll Tax either and now we're still saddled with more costly Council Tax....
