Seriously though, it might not be a vote winner, but the author seems to have some valid ideas and points.
Seeing as de-regulation hasn't really worked and privatisation of the trains hasn't been a roaring success - seen more recently with the failure on the wcml contracts and the insistence on putting the ecml back into private hands, coming up with alternatives like this makes interesting reading

Both are government lead initiatives/screw ups, so not exactly the Private Sectors fault.

I have the utmost respect for the author but the whole thing is froth in the current situation.
