Re: the railways
well in the eastern line which is already nationalised can spend money replacing old British rail stock which the privatised railway company was still using its a step forward. so if the government let me bid for the franchise for I say £45 million with no proof I had the money but they subsidized the franchise for £ 45 million then the bank let me borrow money on the back of the subsidy . I then take all the profits pay the shareholders then warn the government the franchise was going bankrupt. they then pump more money into the franchise, costing the taxpayers more. official figures state it has cost £25 billion more to run the railways than when it was nationalized. i just cant see the logic:confused: it would decrease fares by 20% BBC News - Why not... nationalise the railways? this link gets near the truth:mosher:

Re: the railways
no, there is cuts and people running about saying there is no money.so they must be lying if they can spend billions of pounds giving money to their hedge fund mates. it just doesn't make sense and you know it doesn't that's why you go on personal attacks instead of debating . you know you've lost the debate even a thickie like me knows you've lost the debate and your ideology has cost the country billions of pounds and your ideology is to pick on the weak and vulnerable typical jackboot tories. cmon give me the alternative of nationalization which will save billions. |
Re: the railways

Re: the railways
your nuts ,it has cost at least yes at least £30 billion more more of taxpayers money more to run the railways privatised than it was nationalized it has increased cost 1000% since the railways were privatized and what did we get less carriages and the highest train prices in Europe. it has been a failure for the taxpayer you can be thick sometimes. even tories have admitted it look at the billions they spent on new buses in London. look at the eastern line its brought £620 million for the taxpayer and even replaced old stock from the old British rail that the private firms painted over.
