#Privatisation doesn't work for the people, it works ONLY for the millionaires & billionaires & the fatcat bosses.

Prices go UP, quality of service goes DOWN & the wealthy become richer. All at our expense.

We need public ownership & to #TaxTheRich with a #WealthTax.

Just catching up on #DirtyBusiness and...fuming. The lies, the duplicity, the scheming. #Privatisation of water was always a stupid, stupid idea, but add to it incompetent regulation by #Ofwat and...voila. An absolute national disgrace.

Get that snail mail rollin' #bluesky. About time the UK post office was put to good use again. Let's face it, it's done nothing useful since #privatisation and this seems like the perfect funding model. I shall be forwarding much junk mail from tomorrow. Thank you.

Streeting’s NHS plan: the deadliest corporate cuckoo yet placed in the health service THE publication of Wes Streeting’s 10 Year Plan for Health in England removes any doubts that Health Secretary is dead-set to hammer the final nails into the coffin of the NHS.Rather than support a service geared to meeting the clinical needs of the population, the NHS is to be repurposed to serve the interests of private healthcare companies, big tech and financiers.

Privatisation Of DNB To Reduce Govt’s Financial Liabilities, Says Academician KUALA LUMPUR, March 8 (Bernama) — The privatisation of Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) is expected to reduce the government’s financial liabilities and associated risks as the 5G network deployment transitions from a policy-driven phase to a fully commercial stage, according to an industry expert. Universiti Teknologi Malaysia associate professor at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Dr Leow Chee Yen, said that since the major shareholders are now service providers that directly interface with end users, they have first-hand knowledge of current market conditions and actual demand. “It is expected that DNB will become more commercially competitive to ensure the profitability […]

In other words, #Privatisation does NOTHING for us ordinary people, except make us pay more for an inferior product, whilst the wealthy fatcats become even richer.

Royal Mail bosses to be called to Parliament over letter delivery failures It comes after hundreds of people contacted BBC Your Voice to express frustration over late deliveries.

The Tories did this, promising privatisation will improve service. But privatisation as we can see does the opposite. All it does is transform flourishing services into poor services, time and time again. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #RoyalMail #Privatisation #Tories
