I don’t know how realistic it is to nationalise the gas, electricity and telecoms industries, but putting in a timetable for it to happen over 5 years would be a good start.I think his analysis is sound.
Doing something effective about it is, as in the script of Amadeus, 'a challenge', especially within less than three years. It's a job for maybe two decades, and we have a very impatient electorate. No politician has a magic wand, and that's what people really want.
Then change the tax bands so it gives a bit of a lift to lower paid workers.
Part 3 can be shutting the loopholes that allows mega corporations to dodge tax.
If he, or anybody else, can start to put together a plan that looks something like that, then I think they’d have a lot of support.
