Petition updateJeremy Corbyn: please mediate the Sheffield trees crisis.Jeremy Corbyn on PFI and outsourcing (Re: Carillion)

Jeremy Corbyn: "The collapse of Carillion is a watershed moment. It is time to put an end to the rip-off privatisation policies that have done serious damage to our public services and fleeced taxpayers of billions of pounds... Labour will end the Private Finance Initiative rip-off." As applies to the PFI 'Streets Behind' contract with Amey plc and their sub-contractors. We know that Jeremy Corbyn has not, as yet, intervened directly in the Sheffield trees crisis - there are plethora issues caused by austerity and free-market dogma that are damaging us and killing us and I don't feel he can personally intervene in every single one - but his statement is the strongest yet from any party that they recognise the folly, damage and misery these contracts and this greed driven thinking brings.
