I suppose we shouldn't mention the privatisation of NATS (Air Traffic Control), and that of Qinetiq, carried out by Labour?

How are the 640 PFI initiatives, worth £209 billion, launched under the Labour Government, coming along?

How is the London Underground PPPs (Public Private Partnerships) coming along? (oh, they're not doing very well, are they?)

Do you think "Mandy" will privatise Royal Mail?

All these, and many more questions, will not be answered by "Clause 4".
