Company policies aren't law. The Guardian article doesn't (As far as I can tell) claim any laws have been broken.

There are laws regarding the release of this kind of thing under the Data Protection Act, but most sources seem to agree that Virgin were in the clear with regards to that.

Face it, Corbyn's had his bright red socialist backside handed to him on a plate by a bearded pullover enthusiast...

Everyone apparently raves about "East Coast", however it was run on very strict commercial lines, and the fact the government was the shareholder didn't make much difference.

Also, what is the actual benefit of Nationalisation? Except possibly the warm, fuzzy feeling in the heart of a few 70s throwbacks and Unions salavting at the prospect of being able to strike without ever actually putting their employer out of business.
