You comment on the Tories selling everything that we ever owned was a little bit of bad timing.
Have you not heard that a certain Labour Slapper, by the name of Rayner, BOUGHT HER COUNCIL HOME AND MADE A £48k PROFIT.
Not to get into the pros and cons of the state sell offs many years ago, some things most people do not know or ignore.
Coal mines
Rail Ways
Ship yards.
And the car industry .
Where founded by private companies and individuals not the Governments of the day.
The coal mines, railways and ship yards were privatised for one reason, all had been ground into the dirt by over 5 years of war work, 5 years in which they had all been worked 24/7 from Sept 1939 until August 1945.
Little maintenance, working 24/7, they were shot, kaput and knackered , the post war government thought privatisation was the cheaper option than reimbursing their owners .
To do our part in saving mankind we bankrupted ourselves and no frigging foreigner gave a flying shxt.
