Has privatisation been good or bad for the economy and the consumer?..what were the reasons for the Tories privatising gas, electric, water, railways ect?
Now was it just for the good of the nation, or a way to restrict union powers..or a means to fend off political criticism when price increases are in the offing?... or just a means of repayment to multinational companies that have funded the party into power?
Or was it a good thing for the country?
