East Coast Rail renationalised. Presumably for ever, since who is going to buy it now? Well, then, let’s have all of our trains stopping at our Durham station.
The Lindsey oil refinery workers and their supporters triumphant both over Thatcher’s anti-union laws and over Thatcher’s European Single Market.
Post Office privatisation cancelled.
ID cards cancelled (there was always something about them that was just never going to happen, anyway).
And ever-clearer signs that Trident is going to be cancelled, although of course no more officially than Post Office privatisation or ID cards.
So, remind me again – why did there have to be something called New Labour?
