Indeed
I also think that rail shouldn't have been privatized either but for the omnishambles it had become. I'm actually against privatizing anything that is part of the infrastructure of the nation but that then leaves the problem of unions, inefficiency, jobs for life etc. to be dealt with before those utilities can function at their best.
