Nationalise All Water, Gas, Electricity, Rail and Bus companies.

What the petition asks

I want the Government to take direct ownership of all water, gas, electricity, rail and bus companies, and ban private ownership of such companies. Create civil service departments to run these enterprises for the common good and not for profit.
I think these entities should not be run privately, for profit. Prices should be set by elected committees of state employees with expertise in these areas. Any ‘profit’ created should be reinvested into the running of these government owned facilities to make them greener, more efficient and more economical.
