Based on specially commissioned research, this text looks at the rail, water, gas and electricity industries, arguing that the advantages of privatisation have been overstated and that at least some parts of these utilities should be taken back into public ownership.

Based on specially commissioned research, this text focuses on the 4 key utilities of rail, water, gas and electricity.
