I know a lot of people are ambivalent about this issue but why should the government be allowed to sell off something that we as a nation own when we gave them no mandate to sell (it was never mentioned in there manifesto) I've seen many sell off's of our asset's over the years and no one can convince they have ever been in the interest of the common man, we should be worried about this and be doing what we can to stop it imho,
