I shouldn't put too much hope in the special or golden share. It was put in place to keep the labour rebels quiet at the time of PPP but the legality of it was dubious at the time and since then the European Courts have made the Government tear up the similar BAA share.

Having argued that the share was required for security reasons the Government is pretty unlikely to attempt to use it for anything without a very direct security implication.
