Strictly speaking it is.
Marxism is basically where the government control all of the national resources.

If "British" Steel (gov owned) made the rails, that "British" Rail trains ran on, fuelled by coal from pits run by the "national" coal board etc - that's Marxism in a nutshell.
McDonnell has made it no secret he would nationalise a whole string of sectors again.
