The continuing de-anglification of England.
Brilliant.
English ports are about to become controlled by Goldman-Sachs - the American company. This comes after the government sold off the British Airports Authority to the Spanish Ferrovial group, which comes hot on the heels of the sell-off of P&O to Dubai Ports World. So now we don't have any shipbuilding left, we sold off all our car companies to the Americans and Germans, we don't run our own airports or docks any more, most of our products come from abroad and we manufacture absolutely nothing. England in the 21st Century. What a fucked-up over-politicised shithole. I thought it was bad when I left but the gentle decline has accelerated to a full-bore collapse.
Still - on the upside, having Ferrovial run the airports means they might work more like airports and less like shopping malls. Hell - it means the moving walkways might actually work, the airports might not stink of sewage and cigarette smoke, and the first impression for people arriving might be more favourable than the congested, inefficient, dirty third-world lookalike that the airports are right now.
