Greater Manchester Renationalises The Bus Services

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

1986 Thatcher opened up the bus services to the evil private sector and it led to a free for all with higher prices and poorer services

Manchester , a fine liberal socialist city is turning back the tide

Would be great if it led to the return of a simplified and improved service for gas , electricity etc

I cannot believe that the numerous energy companies out there have price and service at their foremost minds , its all about money

Do you believe that all private sector is evil/ Do you think that all services, everything including housing food travel (or prevention of it) etc should he controlled by the state.? I seem to remember a couple of other people trying that method. It failed miserably.
that is not to say I don't agree with some nationlisation but you seem to be suggesting a blanket control of everything.

In fairness to Sludge, he's only mentioned utilities such as gas and electric.

You've got him down as him wanting a government that brings back food rationing.

Bit of a leap isn't it?

I'm with Sludge - Transport, Gas, Electric and Water should never have bene privatized. ****ing Tories.

I certainly think energy , public transport etc should be state controlled

All this talk about efficiency and competition for the buses and trains had led to higher prices and fewer services

It makes me laugh when tory voters complain about the trains and roads

Don't vote for them then

I remember the old nationalised industries and yes they worked n times , sadly destroyed by overly greedy unions.

Unions created Thatcher and private sector.

It was ok

Now it's two carriages and often late

I remember the old nationalised industries and they were fabulous. We can only hope they will return.

Time has moved on

Imagine water , gas , elec all being under one roof or at most just a few providers ?

Broadband is a nightmare and they are all devils

Re: Greater Manchester Renationalises The Bus Services

Broadband is a joke in UK. i pay peanuts for 1tb fiber. I hear of people paying 50 plus a month in blighty
