The socialist content of nationalisation is very different from the communist models.

The other thing is,nationalisation,being imposed by a power,would be an act of communism,That would be a fairer assumption in my view.
I would then add strongly,nationalisation voted for in democratic elections and therefore then done by a democratically elected govt,under the socialist model of nationalisation, is a world away from communism either in thought or fact.
So communism coming into this thread as to Corbyns 'possible' policies,I fear are red herrings.
I do expect it to come from the sick and warped media with their view of things however.

Nationalisation had its faults as I am learning from my family much older than myself as to the issues around the utility services then.
However, what I am also hearing is those issues pale into near insignificance as to what has transpired since privatisation which even they as usually firm Conservatives say, was the biggest con against consumers ever done.

It could work, with the right agenda and conditions in place.
In my view, looking at my water, electricity, gas bills,anything for me would be better than the rip off and sheer greed as to these services in operation now.
