| Message | We believe this is unnecessary. There are many countries whereby privateization works and manages these services far better than the state does. Private transport has long been the way in other nations and they have far more efficent services, and money in the taxpayers pocket than Solentians do and does. Coleen Power Shadow Finance Minister |
