Many promises will be made about investment etc some of which will sound good, but promises will be broken, those in charge will change, policy will change and, as we have found, it only takes one incident such as 9/11 for everything to go down the pan. Plus, of course, events such as 9/11 will be used as an excuse for making wholesale changes whether warranted or not.

Bear all this in mind when making up your mind about privatisation.

I would fight against it and wish we in the UK had been more forceful with our opposition. I would have been even more inclined to strike about privatisation than the current pay dispute, although wouldn't rule that out either.
