I wish you would all get this. It isn't about running railways. It is about making money. And if the Private sector can't make money via their 'legendary (and mythical) efficiency and good business sense'.. they make damned sure they make it via subsidy and indefensible fares.
FFS, this is the Tory Agenda since 1979 in a nutshell and the population of this country still don't get it.
Oh, we already got it !
But when people suggest that foreign railway companies are better at running UK railways, they need to take a more careful look.
Of course its about making money. We live in a capitalist society. Even the good old Labour party accept that. Socialism and communism simply don't generate enough wealth to enable anything to be "nice". Occasionally, private enterprise does make a few things "nice"
