Hopefully you’re all enjoying the good weather, so I’ll keep it short today.
Cameron, Osborne, Clegg, Cable, Miliband, Balls and the rest of our EU-subservient politicians will never admit to the electorate just how much of what they do is on instruction from Brussels, like same-sex marriages and the privatisation of Royal Mail� (and possibly the �60bn Hs2 train white elephant).
In those countries where�privatisation of postal services has�already taken place there has been a reduction in service. The splendid response of France to the EU’s directives on selling their postal services (La Poste) was to agree to privatise�La Poste�provided any purchaser gave the same service as the state and took over all pension responsibilities. Bearing in mind that France is�674,843 km2 -�more than twice the size of the UK at 243,610 km2 -�and the huge pension liabilities of La Poste, the usual suspects for buying La Poste �(TNT, DHL, FedEx and vulture venture capitalists) all�ran a�kilometre or two in the opposite direction.
But in Britain, our useless, EU-subservient politicians grovelingly agreed to their EU masters’ demands.�Sadly for our quisling leaders,�the Royal Mail was unsaleable as its pension fund had �28bn in assets but �37bn in liabilities (and growing by the day). So, our lying, thieving scumbag politicians�dumped all the assets and liabilities of the Royal Mail’s pension fund onto British taxpayers – costing us at least �9bn (and most probably much more). However, this left the Royal Mail in a condition whereby it could be sold off to satisfy our EU bosses.
Our lying, thieving politicians will claim that selling the Royal Mail is a “good deal for taxpayers” or something like that. This is a �9bn (growing by day)�lie.
[…] Privatising postal services – France tells EU to get stuffed – Britain grovels and agree… […]
