- Would you really want the government to own a slice of your business?
- And presumably have some say in how you run it?
- And if you want to buy your share back when times get better, will you be able to?
- Nationalisation by stealth?
Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away. -
..... and when Northern Rock was in trouble the phrase ' bailed out by the taxpayer' was repeated ad nauseum to denigrate the company and to enable an excuse for nationalisation. How ironic that it is now used as a way of HMG trying to gain kudos !!!!!!

Not at all. It needs improving and Labour have failed to do that so it's time for a new HMG with better ideas and less left-wing dogma. A good education system is good for everybody and the economy.
