An interesting read, although I don't think I'll ever understand Sir Brian's stance.
A major donor to the left wing SNP, who are in favour of mass renationalisation. Both the Railways and Royal Mail for a start. That doesn't half conflict with Sir Brian's views in Tyne and Wear...
Must be something in the air north of the border.
