The Bank of England and Liz Truss’s government are at loggerheads. Both seem to be working against each other and seem to be opponents. Meanwhile despite this Liz Tuss’s government plays a risky game with people’s pensions and livelihoods. Liz Truss continues to put pensions at risk and puts homeowners in a vulnerable position with their mortgages. This is politics playing with people’s lives. Her actions only compound the ‘Cost of Living Crisis ‘ and make it worse for most people. This is the most irresponsible government that has been seen. This government and Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng in particular continue to demonstrate lack of insight and incompetence. The Tories need to go now. The selection of a bunch of amateurs to steer the country demonstrates and reinforces what I have said previously, that the Tories lack any talent in their ranks and are bereft of real insights into ways in which to tackle the current issues of ‘Inflation’ and ‘The Cost of Living Crisis’.

Starmer threatens the UK Energy Market suggesting a Publicly Owned Energy Provider
Sir Kier Starmer sent a strong message to the UK Energy Providers with an underlying threat made at the Labour Party Conference yesterday. If Labour gets elected it will set up a new publicly owned Energy Provider that will be in direct competition with the current UK Energy Providers. However it will be run for the benefit of the public and not as a privatised enterprise. This was initially my idea that I provided to the Labour Party on 19th October 2017.

What a Blunder: Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng trips up over his own ego
Britain, for goodness sake wake up and call for re-nationalisation of the utilities, we need new thinking to tackle problems
What’s wrong with British people? Why are British people so against re-nationalisation of our utilities: our infrastructure? In recent months we have seen how the Energy Providers are exploiting a situation to maximise their profits. We have seen that their actions have led to Inflation and Intertest Rate rises. The time has come to seek to re-nationalise the utilities and in particular the Energy Providers. How long can the British avoid nationalisation of the Energy Companies when it’s starring you in the face as the only solution to deal with Inflation and the ‘ Cost of Living Crisis’. A Tory government will not do this and without it there is not even a single glimmer of hope that a change in the leadership of the Tories will help at all.
Liz Truss was a false hope and a mere waste of time. Now she represents a source of embarrassment for the Tories. A misguided and a desperate attempt to reverse the fortune of the Tories. A government led by Liz Truss was a costly misadventure for the Tories and something they have failed to live down. Liz Truss was a costly mistake both for the Tories and the country as a whole. Through Liz Truss, the Tories have shown that they cannot be relied upon to do the right thing and nationalise the energy providers in the U for the good of the country. The misadventure of the Tories investing faith in Liz Truss’s government just goes to show how desperately ineffective Tory policies are. Obviously renationalising and public ownership in general are blind spot for all Tories and as long as it is then right thing to do will remain undone because the Tories still have belief in Thatcherite policies. But time after time we are now hearing about the failures of Thatcherism that haunt the British Economy and which continue to hold Britain back.
Re-nationalise the Energy Providers is the only option to deal with Inflation: the Tories are the only obstacle
It is evident that the only solution to deal with Inflation is to re-nationalise the Energy Providers in the UK: the only obstacle to be removed is the Tories. It is now in the national interest to re- nationalise these Energy Providers to deal with Inflation and to prevent the gross profiteering by these utilities which is against the national interests. Quite simply the current situation is intolerable and is the only factor driving inflation higher and higher. The Tories have lost any control and regulation of the utilities and Ofgen is defunct and unfit for purpose.

Competition is the way forward for the public ownership of Gas and Electricity in Britain
A sure fire way to get the utilities and railways back into public ownership and the less costly way of achieving this.
Yes I admire the ambition of the Labour Party Manifesto and it’s aim to get the Gas and Electricity utilities and railways back into public ownership. Success of this would lead to a more prosperous and fairer Britain and it would be the start of a new era for Britain. Yes it is high time to reverse the failed privatisations of Margaret Thatcher and John Major, and this would be a move which would put Britain on track again. However the scale and the cost of the task is dauntingly enormous and Thatcher knew how difficult it would be to ever go backwards. She tried to make her privatisations irreversible in an attempt to frustrate any attempts to ever develop socialism in Britain. She thought that she had had the final word but despite this there was a fundamental flaw in her plan and one which the Labour Party could exploit if it is savvy enough.
