Social Progress Party
Politics to serve all of society, not just the wealthy and powerful.
Nationalisation
End the private ownership of utilities:
Nationalise services essential to the security and delivery of national infrastructure.
Underlying Principle:
No private company should be in control of essential national infrastructure and services, in part because of the potential security risk of foreign and/or private ownership, but also because of the risk of under-investment in the related networks and structures, excessive charges and profit transferring wealth from the public to private hands, and potential financial mismanagement leading to government support or bailouts of private companies.
Nationalise essential infrastructure: public transport (trains, tube, local buses), utilities (water, electric, internet and gas) and airports.
Nationalise Early Years childcare
Leave open to the market: mobile phone networks and providers, TV stations.
Maintain BBC’s current funding model and strengthen their impartiality requirements and independence from Government.
