Wonder how long before GB will decide a free press is not in the nations interest - and nationalize it.
Don't confuse GB and TB, they are far from the same thing. I'm sure that GB still thinks nationalising a few things would be a good idea, but he thinks they can and should still be free that way (see B of E). TB OTOH doesn't want to nationalise (after all, he doesn't know what "socialism" means) but he can't stand any other institutions being free: that strikes him as a recipe for people not doing as (he knows) they should; i.e. for disaster. Nothing worse than people not doing what he wants.
While I'm here, there's another thing to be said for GB: you won't need any cash-for-honours or other corruption inquiries while he's in no. 10. You may not like what he does with money, but one thing he won't do is steal it for himself.
