Get a grip

I have always believed that governments should not be involved in running nationalised 'businesses'. They should be run by people - entrepreneurs, who know what they're doing. Answerable to shareholders. That way you should get some accountability. A government should govern, that's what they're elected to do.
It was with some incredulity that I read that some voices, mostly on the left wing, were crying out for the renationalisation of the railways following the recent railway franchise fiasco. They seemed to be missing the point that it was the very civil service, who made the huge recent blunders, that would be the people empowered to run the railways. Get a grip.
