🔴 The banks were bailed out by the public less than 20 years ago. Now they’re warning the government not to tax them.
Privatised profits. Socialised losses.
That model has failed Britain 🇬🇧 for decades. It’s time finance served the real economy, not the other way around.
We just gave £600 million to upgrade our grid but the profits go to Spain.
Scottish Power is foreign-owned.
We pay for it. They profit from it.
So much for “homegrown.”

@LaurieFleming @vebatevic Money for the owners. Costs to NZers =#PrivatisedProfits & #SocialisedCosts.
They also get to push their #climatedenial, anti-#Science & #racist propaganda in #CharterSchools, which they can’t in State Schools. Plus they can make it #class-based #inequality

This is on you @CONservatives @RishiSunak & don’t give us the old crap about only being in the job for 6 months!
#NationaliseWater (again).
@Ern400 “We’re planning to invest £10B over the next decade, but this will mean water bills will have to go up”
So, you’re not investing in the ‘Privatised’ infrastructure then Ruth Kelly, we are while you will continue to pass £billions to your Shareholders!

@CalderbankAndy @JudithWorthin10 @CockertonMark In a meme. Feel free to spread.

If the government is paying for it then it should belong to the government, why should it be #PrivatisedProfits and #CorporateWelfare? If the company can't afford to buy it they sure as hell can't afford to run it 🤬
#Nationalise
@ArtCrunchy It’s a system that consumes itself & eventually has to be bailed out by #Socialism Just look at the state of the water industry after 30 years of privatisation. Thatcher said only privatisation could provide the investment needed.

@BenJolly9 #Capitalists support #Socialism when it’s bailing out their losses!
#PrivatisedProfits #NationalisedLosses
@philleehh @K_Niemietz Socialism always works when it has to bail out failed rail franchises or any other successful nationalised enterprise that is handed over to greedy, asset stripping private capitalists to run.
We like to call it
#PrivatisedProfits - #NationalisedLosses or, expressed as a meme:
@DeborahMeaden @RishiSunak The only way it should be. You can’t claim to be a ‘British’ company and apply for a Gov bailout if you register it in the Cayman Islands and pay no tax in the UK.
They should apply for the Cayman Islands bail out scheme.
#PrivatisedProfits #NationalisedLosses
@BenJolly9 So, once again, a tax cheating, greedy billionaire is happy to make his fortune off of #capitalism safe in the knowledge that this Govt will underwrite their failure with public money.
That’s #Socialism isn’t it?
#PrivatisedProfits #NationalisedLosses
@SkyeCity_ @Lovehasnowords1 So #Branson wants #PrivatisedProfits but #NationalisedLosses?
That’s called a safety net for capitalism!
@BarryKe36843416 @duncanpoundcake Agreed. As no-one will bail out the losses to my, or countless others, pension pot, why should his losses get higher precedence?
#PrivatisedProfits #NationalisedLosses
@Ciara87C @Nyct0phil3_ Current exhibit 1 is #Branson’s request for a £7.9B bailout of the aviation industry. If this is acceptable, I would ask “who is bailing out the 30% recent drop in my pension pot?”
I like to call it #PrivatisedProfits #NationalisedLosses
@duncanpoundcake @CrankyOutrider Socialism always saves Capitalism
#PrivatisedProfits #NationalisedLosses
@duncanpoundcake Over £450B of public money went to bail out British banks during the world wide banking crash (caused by greedy bankers & mis-selling of loans) of 2007/8.
There’s a name for that. One that #Tories dare not speak, at that name is #Socialism.
