Oh - the same irony that rail franchising is declared dead and the TOCs will be nationalised, whereas flavour of the month in bus operation is a network designed by the public sector, with routes or areas operated by franchises?

Title: Re: Great British Railways Post by: TaplowGreen on March 16, 2025, 15:49:54 Depends on your definition of NHS England body I'd suggest it depends rather more on your understanding of what constitutes privatisation.

And why they aren't seen as privatisation (even by 'the back door')?
