Why this petition matters

Started by Rowan Bell

We're in a mess, with more and more privatised industries swindling we the innocent people with extortionate bills and terrible service.  We have eye-watering energy bills, water companies dumping sewage and leaking water, and rail companies crippled by strikes.

These are natural monopolies butchered into inefficient and irresponsible pseudo-private markets that are diddling us all, delivering bumper profits to shareholders while we empty our wallets!

The solution?  Employee-owned national services, where prices are reasonable and regulated, economies of scale are restored, re-investment of profits is guaranteed, and modest profits are shared amongst the staff in an incentive scheme.

Employees have a stake, have incentive, have pride, and all the inefficiency and greed is gone.

I want to see UK Water, UK Gas, UK Electricity and UK Rail for reasonable prices and better services.  This is the future.  Peace.
